Along with the director and Melissa Mcgee from daas about the leadership Going Forward of the Service Provider work group. Ashley and annie, who had been serving as cochairs well past their term and are looking for some relief, if you will, head ventured had ventured earlier this year and reached out to talk about this and we were finally able to coordinate and come together. Resulted in the idea of the Dignity Fund Coalition and case sharing leadership responsibilities and both of our agencies cohosting the four annual Service Provider work group meetings, so we will both, sue and i, and fiona and marie, will be taking back to their organization this concept and seeing what our memberships we prefer. Whether we each take two or we truly cohosts all four together and we will be reporting back to ramona with that final determination. We also talked about the scheduling and what would be the best strategic schedule for these meetings to give some consistency so people that wish to participate could plan accordingly. All of this with the goal of making the efforts not only for Service Provider work group, about all of a sudden more aligned and quite frankly, reducing the great number of meetings, important meetings, but nonetheless, a lot of them so that we can all be more effective. Finally, ive talked about it forever, but it is finally here. As dianne mentioned, we are getting there together and getting the celebration of all ages and all abilities this sunday at civic centre plaza. We have over 40 exhibitors, we have a whole slate packed with talent, including the 350 voice senior choir that received the award that she was talking about and then a full agenda of engaging interactive activities at the outdoor gymnasium. I would love to see you all. We welcome everyone and anyone. Again, sunday from 11 00 a. M. Until 4 00 p. M. I think that is everything. Thank you. Any comments or questions from the commission . From the public . Thank you. The next item on the agenda is the nominating committee. Commissioner katie loo is the chair of that committee and they are recommending someone be nominated to the council. There will be no voting on this recommendation, but we invite mr. Hallstead to make some comments if he is here. He is. Thank you so much. First and foremost, i want to express my gratitude for the opportunity to serve on the council. I would come to this position potentially as a professional with the experience and advertising in advertising and financial services, as an educator in Higher Education and advocates. Most importantly, as a consumer of direct services. Moving to San Francisco about 60 years ago, i wouldnt feel protected, i wouldnt be independent without being on the receiving end of Human Services, but most importantly i wouldnt feel like i belong. I wouldnt feel welcomed into the city that i have grown to love. I will give you a small and quick trivia bite. I feel when i feel overwhelmed, i do one thing. I was really overwhelmed with work. When i feel overwhelmed, there is one thing i go to, safely, which is below my Apartment Building and i buy the highest grade of dark chocolate bars i can get. The only catch to that is i cant open up the chocolate bar until my caretaker helps me open it up. I had a busy morning that morning. That is two hours from 7 00 a. M. Until 9 00 a. M. From 7 00 a. M. Until 8 30 a. M. , i was stuck on video and doing email entering videoconferences. By the time i got out of the shower, i forgot to ask my caretaker to open of the chocolate bar and my heart sank. I got to the kitchen, i opened up the fridge and i saw that she made it. However, i couldnt get the chocolate bar. I turned around and i saw the chocolate bar not only opened but in a jar. But broken into small pieces. Not only into small pieces but placed in position to where i could grab it with my mouth with the lid cracked. So it is just a small example of my life, but not only my experience with Human Services, they dont normally help me. They really make me feel like i belong, and you dont get the human foreground. So im very excited to have this opportunity to be on the council , understand and get to know my colleagues on the council on a human level. Thank you so much. Thank you very much. Commissioners, there is a copy of his resume in your package and we look forward to voting on your recommendation next month. Thank you very much for coming. Any comments or questions . I wanted to say a few words. I think your education and experience will add diversity to our council. Thank you. I just wanted to express appreciation for coming because i served with commissioner lou on the nominating committee and for the interview that we did to make this recommendation. As the commission expands its scope and really seeks to embrace inclusive disability, i think that your participation and perspectives will enrich the Advisory Council and i want to thank you for taking the time and the interest to contribute. Any other comments or questions . Dianne . I wanted to comment that josh came to our last Council Meeting we opened the invitation when i was first coming to the council. That was a question i was asked by then supervisor breed, now mayor breed, had i ever been to a meeting . So made that offer to two of our potential members and josh was able to come that day and got to see what we were doing. We are really excited about the possibility. Thank you. Thank you very much. The next item on the agenda is old business. There is none. Item six, new business, the Community Living fund six months update. Welcome, sandy. Good morning, commissioners. Good morning executive director. And the Program Analyst for the office of Community Partnership and im here today. Im here to present the sixmonth report i would like to give a quick overview for our newer commissioners. Since our last report was back in april. The Community Living fund was created in 2006 to support aging in place and Community Placement alternatives for individuals who may otherwise require care within an institution. We provide home and communitybased Services Using two pronged approach, coordinated Case Management, and purchase of goods and services. They are currently the contracted Service Provider for the program. The program serves adults in San Francisco whose incomes are up to 300 of the federal poverty level. Those who are willing and able to live in the community with appropriate support, and those who have a demonstrated need for a service or resource that will serve to enable Community Living or prevent institutionalization. The target population includes individuals who are ready to discharge from laguna honda hospital, zuckerberg San Francisco general, and other San Francisco facilities. We also serve individuals who are at imminent risk of institutional placement, but are willing and able to remain in the community with appropriate support. The section in the San Francisco administrative code requires that they report c. L. F. Levels of Services Provided and cost incurred every six months. My report today will be fulfilling this requirement. You will find in the sixmonth report covering january through june, 2019, a lot of information that i would like to briefly fill out. My first thought is the total new referrals this reporting period of 158. This is consistent with trends over the life of the period. Most of these referrals were eligible for c. L. F. During this reporting period, we served 343 clients in total, with about 75 receiving intensive Case Management and purchase of equipment and services through i. O. A. We also served 100 clients through the rental subsidy scatter sight housing and rental subsidy administration. Consistent with overall problem defence today, about 70 2 of referred clients were older adults age 60 and up. Trends and ethnic profile of new referrals remains generally consistent with prior periods. Referrals for clients make up the Largest Group of 41 , africanamericans are at 21 , latino at 20 and asian and Pacific Islanders at 16 , which has increased from our last report. During this reporting period, also i. O. A. Worked with a group to update the c. L. F. Care plan module with a revised service plan library and layout. The improvements were made to enhance the accuracy of reporting Performance Measures related to the c. L. F. Care plan. As you all noticed, data on the second performance measure in this report on page three, is currently not available, but will be in the next reporting. Finally, we are happy to report that the c. L. F. Program worked extensively on it staffing plan to fill vacancies at i. O. A. Resulting in the program being fully staffed. We hope that this would lead to an overall increase in clients served and further decrease the number of people on the waitlist at this time, i would be happy to answer any questions if you have any. Thank you very much. Any comments or questions from the commission . Thank you. Thank you, sandy. Just a couple of questions. I was looking at some of the charts in the back. With regard to the areas of the city that are being served, what times are being made to increase referrals from zip codes my 412434 and 12 . Thank you for that question. Our referrals are mostly through the daas integrated intake. They are mostly from School Nursing facilities, primarily laguna honda hospital. We will look at the different areas where we feel that there is opportunity to increase provide better access to the c. L. F. Plan, and that would be something that we could work on at this time, but primarily, the referrals do come from laguna honda hospital, and we do conduct other outreach. The Community Living fund does do presentations in the community to make sure that we spread the word about c. L. F. I like looking at the graphs in the back. There was a couple of graphs in the back that were specifically, charge number three, where there is a red bar with white dots on it, and i couldnt tell what area that was from. Is that the c. L. F. Referrals by zip code . Yeah,. It looks like that would be the second from the top. Okay. There was another one lower that looks like the same color. Maybe lastly, there were two charts in the back. One was 22, which is the Community Living fund sixmonth report, and then there was another one, fivepoint two which had the same title and exactly the same month, but different figures on it. Yes. The difference with the 2. 2, they are numbers related to referral to c. L. F. , where as fivepoint to are actually enrolled. Got it. Okay. Thank you. We will relabel it to make sure it is clear next time. Thank you. Any other comments or questions . I guess i have a question. As most of the people are coming from laguna honda, do the zip codes that are noted here reflect where they originally lived . At the time of referral it would be with their address. All im asking is it doesnt reflect them being in laguna honda in that particular area of town, it reflects where they were living before they were in laguna honda and then got discharged. Yes. There are some referrals that come from the community directly yeah. Otherwise this is a distribution, basically of residents in San Francisco and what neighborhoods they came from. Does that reflect because a lot of this is based on income, does that reflect those . Looking at the neighborhoods sorry, the zip codes, a lot of the zip codes are surrounded or they have a Major Hospital around that area, so that could possibly be the reason why there are more referrals coming from some of the big areas. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Any other comments or questions . Any comments or questions from the public . Thank you very much. Thank you. The next item is a presentation on the daas fiscal year 1920 schedule for request for proposals and contract renewals. Welcome. Good morning, commissioners. I am from h. S. A. s office of contract management. Im joined by my colleague and administrative analyst. We are here this morning to present to you the fiscal year 1920 schedule request for proposals, contract modifications, and contract renewals. Every year, contracts and Program StaffWork Together to develop a schedule and we presented here at commission in order to give both the commission, as well as the community and overview of what we are working on and the programs and contracts will be b. We will be bringing to commission for approval over the course of the year. First is the schedule of request for proposals for fiscal year 19 20. On the next four slides, you will see our list of rp his for this year. These are programs that are new programs or existing programs with contracts that are expiring that need a new procurement. The r. F. P. Is marked with an asterisk and they are services that will begin with the in the current fiscal year. Those r. F. P. S are currently in process and have planned contract start dates in fiscal year 1920. The rest of the r. F. P. S will begin services in fiscal year 2021, with a contract start date of july first, 2020. You will see we have listed the program name, the month in which we plan on releasing the r. F. P. To the public, in the month in which we plan on bringing the item to commission for approval. These dates are tentative and could possibly change, but for the most part, well try to stick to the schedule as much as possible. The r. F. P. Process usually takes approximately three months from the time that we issue the r. F. P. , to the time that would bring the contracts to commission for approval, so you will see we have scheduled the Commission Dates for these three months out from the r. F. P. Release date. There are a total of 25 r. F. P. S on our schedule this year. Last year we had a total of 22 r. F. P. S so we are seeing a bit of an increase this year. We will have we aim to have all of our r. F.
