Mission Station's new captain is spending at least some of her first weeks on the job reconnecting with the communities she serves in central San Francisco. "It's been absolutely fantastic," Captain Rachel Moran told the Bay Area Reporter. "It's great reconnecting with staff at the station and going out to talk with the community from a captain's perspective. It's good for your soul — great, but busy, let me tell you." As the B.A.R. reported last month, Moran, who'd been an officer at Mission Station for about a decade until being transferred to the special victims unit for a year and a half, returned to become the first woman to lead the station February 20. In addition to the Mission district, the station serves part of the Castro and Noe Valley.
