11:07 pm
what drugs they think they have on them. >> the response here has been different. 2016 british columbia declared a health emergency expanded from one official safe use site to dozens and started offering users the option of a regulated drug supply. >> we have seen sort of the risk that have come from unregulated drugs. we know people use them. so, we legalize them and make are regulated versions and people don't immediately die when they consume them. >> vancouver coastal health say the goal has been to reach for every tool in slowing the epidemic that continues to claim lives. the overdose rate has risen and dipped before climbing again by comparison san francisco has followed a roughly similar path if on a bit of a delay. finishing 2023 slightly higher. now, one might look at the per-capita numbers and say they are not fairing better than san francisco in

11:11 pm
sometimes, not all of the time. and people are not always ready to accept them. >> reporter: so, just like san francisco vancouver, for all of the different policies, is having the familiar debate over the balance of priorities. even what it means to provide help. >> people's hearts were in the right place you don't want to put people who are sick into prison but at the same time we need, you know, to stop being the one-legged stool of harm reduction and get back to the pillar approach that has multiple entrances for people to get into help. >> but we need people to stay alive to access the services and that is what harm reduction does. >> if you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse and addiction call the number on your screen right now. 1-800-662-help. up next, teachers concerned for the future of their school system. >> we can not be patient about
11:12 pm

11:13 pm
is the problem. record budgets. fewer officers. business killing bureaucracy. the insiders won't change a system built for their benefit. i'm daniel lurie and san francisco needs a mayor unafraid to take on the status quo, bring accountability, and stop the excuses.

11:16 pm
workers and psychiatrists. the reason? they say, california department of education's oversight of the district's budget and personnel has created an onboarding process that takes longer to get employees approved and in the classroom. she says she knows several people caught up in the process including one counselor who is new to the district. >> completed his onboarding, fingerprinting, got his letter, you know, got his contract. even showed up to work for one day and less than a day he was asked to go back home. >> when we fight, we win. >> they gathered to protest and show their displeasure with the current process. >> i am so mad and so tired. >> the president of united educators of san francisco. >> she is awesome. >> we can not be complaisant any longer. our students deserve us to be fully staffed on the first day. hopefully we will not publish in this
11:17 pm
position next year. >> a spokesperson says the role of the state is to ensure every staff member hired by the district can actually be paid through the entire cool year. sfusd has been working in's deficit for years. the state came in two years ago to help the district balance the budget. after a lack of real improvement the state stepped in even more this past spring. with fiscal advisories. the district says have the power to directly engage in any district operation deemed counterto fiscal stability. we reached out to the district regarding the union's protest. they told us they continue to work collaboratively with the fiscal advisories and labor partners to hire for vacant positions and say the escalated state oversight shows the need to eliminate deficit spending. still, she wonders what all of that really means when it comes to getting support staff in the classroom. >> it is disheartening. it is
11:18 pm
definitely making me upset. i know that my supervisors and managers are stressed out for sure. you know, we were really excited to have a year of being fully staffed when it came to school social workers. >> the cde says they are currently prioritizing certain support staff hires within the district. trying to get people into the class room as soon as possible. >> i was the first one to raise my hand and, i said, well, my head is spinning right now. >> all right, residents in south san jose are about up to their arms about a proposal to use a homeless shelter as a jail site. they don't have time to properly address their concerns over the decision t. started a couple weeks ago when those residents got a notice for a neighborhood meet and greet. at the meeting santa clara county behavioral health
11:19 pm
