And really make sure that people have the care that we need. I also want to mention that them being arrested was not ok. That was stupid. No warning about know chance and they arrested them and ive been here in a lot of protests and ive never seen that. Good afternoon, supervisors. The reality is clear that when you see on the street and theyre screaming and they need Health Treatment you get arrested and that is the response and if you are in city hall and you are treatmenting and chanting we need healthcare, you get arrested. Thats why its so important because we dont need changes because if the system is broken and you are telling the people who are effected by the system the most, that we just need a little tweak here and a little change there, then that is a slap in the face. And the only way that we can fix this system is through a vision where the system functioned for the people that it serves. And so i really just want to thank supervisor haney and supervisor ronen for having that vision and having the guts to use the power that they have to empower the people in their communities and then San Francisco as a city so we can be, again, on the cutting edge of the country and show people a better system and a Better Future is not only possible its on the horizon. Thank you, very much. Good afternoon and thank you very much for your leadership and were a member of treatment on demand. I know it took over 100 drafts and maybe we need a few more and we need to move to legislation as this has been heard. We hope that can be true. Because you get better accountability that way and we can go beyond reports and hearings and structural accountability and across sigh. Its a structural problem the way we govern. I wanted to mention that. And i really want to appreciate the deepest part of our being as a community that you have included the incarcerated population where it is the largest homeless shelter facility and its the largest mental ill facility in our community and the largest Substance Use disorder in our city. That has tob to be eliminated. You have included more than one phrase in the legislation and i truly appreciate it the other specific thing is the office of private insurance and its a creative way to include universally and we need that clearly and i hope that you can legislate. Thank you, very much. Public Heath Justice collective. Were very glad to see a program of universal and particularly multi level meant healthcare being proposed and thats a cause for celebration. I want to talk about a gathering danger of a law and order approach to both homelessness and methal health. One is the mayors Urgent Care Mental Health plan and it includes enforcement of drug laws on Homeless People. And if you read the legislation, it talks about foot and bicycle patrols of homeless areas for aggressive enforcement of drug laws that cannot be. The second example is that the mayors jail plan which includes a Justice Center with new jail cells and the Mental Health jail plus this is supposed to happen in 2028. In the meantime it brings up the responsibility of transfer centers to jail which has so many deaths. Mental health San Francisco has to go through the board of supervisors right now to prevent it from going onto the ballot because if it goes on the ballot, the mayor has a plan with all its drug wars and all its emphasis on just a few people will go on. So, all supervisors need to pass this right now. Hello my name is hyas. I am someone who is born right here in San Francisco. I am a homeowner and i am a Mental Health services consumer. Unlike a lot of the people who will be served by Mental Health sf, i have an incredible support system. I have a wonderful family and i dont want for material things. I have kaiser and i have been waiting for three months to access Mental Healthcare that i need. And id like to address the concerns i believe are held by the Mayors Office and proponents of urgent care sf. It may be hard to draw the line between Holding Public insurance accountable and what that means for the city. We are the answer that we seek today. You are creating something amazing putting structure to action. Hope for people being a voice for those who dont have as voice. I work in with a lot of tenants and we see a lot of fear and now were seeing tenants maybe lost their homes or theyre going through construction as a form of harassment and were seeing people, for the first time in San Francisco saying were going to make San Francisco great again. Were going to make San Francisco great because were taking radical changes and a radical approach for both our Mental Health issues and our homeless issues. So thank you so much. Hi, im a volunteer organizer at Housing Rights Committee and like i said earlier in the ral rally, i have developed some anxiety panic attacksment im having a little one right now. And i never had that before until the largest landlord bought my building. Its also that i dont have Health Insurance and its really hard to find the right one for me. For anyone and thank you for everything that you guys are doing. I appreciate it. Lets get this bill passed. Thank you. Good afternoon. My name is vivian. Im president of the Mental Health association of San Francisco. First, id like to draw everyones attention, i hope you look up an article that the examiner ran. Mental health sf is a full spectrum of services, interventions that can prevent the need for expensive and traumatic urgent care. The premise is simple. Appropriate care at the appropriate time. The mayors competing plan urgent care sf has an extremely limited focus that lacks in sight and sensitivity people dont present with overwhelming systems and early battle of depression or psychotic foot can be treated for staal the needs for urgent care. And it was incumbent on this city to provide the proper level of care at the proper time. Hi, im a Community Organizer with Community Housing partnership. Our mission at Community Housing partnership is to provide Affordable Housing and help formally Homeless People achieve selfsufficient see. In order to do that, we have to help people heal from the homeless trauma that starts from the very moment that peoples housing is unstable. Most of the people that we work with including myself who is experienced homelessness, and poverty, survived through homeless travel on a daily basis and its crucial we recognize workers helping people achieve stability from coming indoors and recognizing the labor of the nonprofit workers that are in support of housing that are really doing some of the Front Line Work around Mental Health and bringing people back some times from the brink on an hourly basis. Sorry, i lost my train of thought here. We appreciate also that housing is a crucial component to comprehensive solutions. If were going to address member health, it starts with people having a home. Lastly, i also want to say that its important to understand the race cultural and linguistic and people have to understand the therapy and care theyre getting. When has real systemic change happened without exercising Community Power through civil disobedience. My name is sarah larson and i worked in San Francisco dhp for 40 years and almost 25 now. I was very encouraged by the fact that the current head of Human Resources has resigned. Im thinking we would have a fresh start. Someone new from someone outside. Instead the job was less than like a week later it was handed to someone who had been the head of hr and has been the head of other things and is kind of just another permanent ride on the San Francisco merry go ground of bureaucracy. I would like to see some fresh blood. I mean, every time i hear someone say oh it takes two years to hire someone, thats just ridiculous. I mean, that really needs to change. Theres no reason it should take that long. Theres no reason that management should be lying about hiring people when dph is 20 understaffed and we need some fresh blood up there at the top. I think the city missed a really great opportunity to bring Something Like that in. Because, as i said earlier, we need a lot of new clinicians and that being said, i would like to say also that laguna honda hospital, 1600 beds or 1200 beds whatever, is still empty and its a fabulous asset to be ignored. I dont know why its there deteriorating except for a few redecorated offices whoa need a facility where people can stay until theyre stabilized and i would like to see option there. It would be really great. My name is june bug and im with the Health Justice academy and the San Francisco heath plan advisory and aim a poor magazine and a former San Francisco commissioner and because im someone that cares and i experienced trauma in my life and i have Mental Health issues. All my issues have a lot of issues that go down to my basic needs being met. And so, im someone who needs Wraparound Services in my life. Im at the mercy of the handout to survive and its still not enough. We have a crisis in my city. This is my city and my home. What i see daily disturbed my heart and what i go through disturbs my mind. Its a challenge to stay focused and not give up because i live a hard life. Mental health sf offers Wraparound Services. And that is something that we need. We need wrap around services because the issues in our life are intersected with the needs that we need to be met. Instead of that in place, what we have right now is incarcerating, criminalizing and killing us. My friend was killed by San Francisco police at the theater who suffered from Mental Health issues. If wrap around services and Mental Health sf was in place my friend making alive today. So i just want to say we are suffering and we are waiting so we need Mental Health sf now. Thank you. Hi. Im Colleen Rebeca and i am managed a Community Organizing department at tenderloin neighborhood corporation. We want to say that San Francisco needs to reform its Mental Health and Substance UseTreatment Service delivery because too many Vulnerable People are falling through the cracks and not getting the help they need. And this is an issue thats urgent and we need to address it now. What we need to do is we need to address it in a way that treats people who have Mental Health issues and who treatment people who use drugs with dignity and respect and is our members of our community. And i say that as a concern who has had issues with Mental Health for more than 35 years. Im part of this community. And other people like me who have Mental Health issues are part of this community and people who use drugs are part of this community and we deserve to be treated with dignity and respect. San francisco must respond to our communitys Behavioral Health needs without stigmatizing people who use drugs and people who need care. Lets move hefford holding that basic tenant of dignity and respect for all of our Community Members, especially those suffering and in need of help at the forefront. Thank you. Im a resident of d8. I applaud your vision and your plan to put together a new system for a Services Including people who are on the front lines of this crisis my colleagues serve families on the front line of the homelessness crisis and we operate the central city access point and were seeing in our programs across our programs residential childcare, more families with more and greater needs and greater acuity levels and we need a system that is capable of providing them with access to low Barrier Services that meet their needs. For families, its not just about meeting the needs of the individuals its meeting the needs of the individuals so the Little People in their lives can get what they need. If parents dont get the service thats they need, then the entire family suffers. And that perpetuates longterm cycles of sickness and poverty and homelessness. Its very important from our perspective that we put forward this bold solution so that people can get access to what they need so we can act now but also take the longterm view towards breaking these cycles so thank you for your vision and your boldness. Thank you. Good afternoon. Jordan Davis District 6 resident. Thank you to supervisor ronen and haney for spearheading this and thank you for the Community Health that will help meth health sf a reality. Except for the deputy sheriff, fuck them for arresting my comrades. Im sick and tired of seeing walking by the crisis on the streets and im tired of the false solutions such as conservatives and in jails. I was that person on the streets but i stabilized. Now as you know all know, i am nuts. I swear on board chambers, i got so depressed i got so drunk at a event i was honored at i puked in the toilet and ive had more suicide that you can count and i dont think i will see services and may be compensating further but i want to make sure everyone in this city that ive adopted and i know and love has voluntary services on demand. I want to say to room 200, stop being the bullshit mayor, stop opposing and continue the conversations but we have standards and we all go to the ballot if this thing is legislative process. So fuck urgent car their actualg this at another meeting. This is really historic moment and i just had to say my peace. Let me get out of here because the sheriffs try to arrest me for bashing them.
