>> court is really an opportunity to support individuals with untreated mental illness in the community and provide community based treatment so individuals can file petitions directly with the court and care court allows for a wide range of petition hours, including first responders, family members, somebody who lives with an individual who's worried about them and those can get filed directly with the court. >> san francisco's department of public health says this program will help them to tackle mental health differently with potentially thousands on our streets qualifying. >> when we look at the program, one of the criteria that somebody has to be suffering from a schizophrenia spectrum diagnosis. and when we look at a population estimate, our best range estimate right now is that roughly one, two, 2000 people in san francisco may meet criteria. >> here's why care court is controversial. even though participation in the program is voluntary, judges have the last say. the san francisco public defender's office is preparing now to represent many in court.
5:17 am
>> it's voluntary in that the court cannot force you to take medications or put you into a locked facility, but you're still having to come to court. the court is still going to order a treatment plan for you. so there's that aspect of it that makes it somewhat coercive . also, if you're not successful in care court, it can actually be used in future proceedings to put you into a locked facility and conserve. you make you a conserved person. >> the mental health association of san francisco opposes care court, citing not enough resources to help everyone in need. >> 75% of folks who are approached who have serious mental illness about assisted outpatient treatment are more than willing to participate in some type of assisted outpatient treatment. and for that, forced treatment is basically taking folks civil liberties away and forcing them to do things they may not understand. >> and luz pena, abc seven news.

5:19 am
they prefer a winter tradition rather than a tropical roller rink. the san jose downtown association got the message and scrambled to make it happen. the ice rink will reopen in the circle of palms on november 17th through mid january. lisa today, october first, i can't believe it's october already. and we're , i guess, starting to talk about you know, the holidays, ice skating. >> i know we never want to, especially we're going to have some of our warmest weather that we have had in quite some time. um, and that's traditionally what we do get in october. but we're talking some record warmth. in fact, we could see records come wednesday, thursday and friday, and it's going to be that classic offshore flow where we see beach time, air temperatures in the afternoon climbing through the 70s and even in the 80s. so we are looking at elevated fire danger. but the good news is that our winds will not be gusty. so at this point, not anticipating red

mostly sunny conditions today, much drier temperatures will be coming up through the 70s. barely at 70 yesterday. and then looking at that record heat wednesday, thursday, potentially friday, and you know, when it's going to be in the 80s in san francisco, it is going to be warm. but as we look at livermore for today, upper 70s should see about 80 and numbers for the low 80s near average on monday, mid and upper 80s. as we get through the beginning of the week and the latter half of the week. yes some 90s arriving. as for today in the south bay mid 70s a nice afternoon about five degrees shy of average though for san jose, 73. in sunnyvale on the peninsula. we'll have that sea breeze, but temperatures will be very comfortable from 71 in menlo park to 74 in san mateo. so that breeze at about 20 miles an hour downtown should be about 71 for early october, upper 60s today, 77 in petaluma. so really nice day up in the north bay. plenty
5:52 am
of sunshine not too hot still shy of average and near average for you in oakland at 73. look for low 70s in union city and fremont. i think we should just keep it at this because when we get warm it is going to get hot and in fact the mornings going to get really warm as we get through the middle of the week. but this is what we expect usually for october, mid october , early october, the warmest time of the year at 76in pittsburgh, 80 in brentwood. good thing we had that rain. our fuels aren't as dry as they could be. so a string of sunny days and today we get a modest warming trend with some 60s at the coast mid 70s around the bay, about 80 inland. and then as we get into monday, very pleasant, near average upper 80s tuesday. and by the middle of the week the coast san francisco catching up as the numbers climb through the 70s. 80s downtown for at least two days. wednesday and thursday, possibly friday. and then we'll talk about a slight cooling trend into next weekend. stay
