People that have all three of those conditions and we have a lot more detail if you are interested and how many people are doing the diagnosis and so forth. But, as you can see, the percentage around women and certainly around transgender women are quite a bit over the general population. And i want to highlight some of our service and programs. And again, these for the homeless women, and the homeless families, and the Community Behavior Health Services and so that includes our Mental Health and our Substance Abuse programs, they fund quite a few programs specifically designed for homeless women and their homeless families and this is about 600 slots and i am giving a few examples here and some that you might have heard of, the womans place and a Homeless Prenatal Program and they have testified here before. And in your program, is the hs360 that is a former house, and hate ash bury merger and it is a womans hope residential treatment and of course, the housed one of the programs to h
Their income, and how that relates as a percentage of area income and so right now, we are limited to 35 or 30 percent of the Median Income and a lot of the families who need our help are in the 40, 50 and 60 percent range and the resources are not sufficient to be able to handle that. And so, and at the end, in conclusion, i would like to say our goal is for families to be securely and safely housed with a stable source of income and a rent payment that is appropriate to the income and i think that if we are working together and can come together on those out comes we have a good list of options to pick from, as we continue this dialogue and i want to thank you for allowing us, and i would also just like to mention, that the Community Home came up and we are funded for another year. And so, we are going to keep doing that, thank you. Actually, what happens after the funding runs out . I am just curious, are there plans to seek funding from other sources . Or, you know, what are the pl

Topic one point two Million School aged children are homeless in the united states, about quarter of a million of those live in california and 2200 live right here in San Francisco and i know that the homeless count, said that there is 679 members of families that are homeless in the city but there is discrepancy in the numbers that our School District did a report saying that the number is actually 2200. You all have seen many of the problems and one thing that i wanted to point out is right now it is taking a family, almost a year or more to move beyond homelessness and 7 months on the waiting list and a five month stay in a shelter, children are homeless for a year or more and all of this research and common sense tell us that long term homelessness is defined as six months or more has negative impacts on children and including the fact that a child who has experienced long term homelessness is five times more likely to be homeless as an adult.
