because of mental health disabilities and people sometimes misunderstood you guys have a lot of strength had you come into the community and do know why you're not picking up people off the street and people have certain civil rights i know i've heard from a lot of you a lot of compassionate and create strong relationships with them and care about that and obviously the one person in their lives who is this year to make sure they're getting adequate treatment and care a so i want to say that is what the public conservatives office does and great for dan to be here to recognize the team i want to say that one of the things that daniel brought in along what silva both of them have brought a sense of order to the office, i know that the

staff around you, you guys people count on you to make sure that things are filed and where they should be and also know you're trying to bring technology to the public conservative and sometimor and s a challenge- your not just about the public conservativors's - joined as a tip i thought this is obsolete and manages the main phone line and presents guarantees with a warm voice and arrived with cheer and a sense

of humor and brings in energy and enthusiasm one year he's transformed our files from a dinosaur age to the electronic age and undertaken soichlts with reforming all the court documents and is a valuable member of the conservators's office thank you, dan. >> (clapping.) >> on behalf of the department of aging & adult services my pleasure to present you with the award of employee of the month for june 2016. >> (clapping.) >> next item will be the

report the directors report. >> good morning commissioners so i guess the big news this week the budget the mayor released his budget and submitted to the board of supervisors and a lot of great things for the department of aging & adult services so i want to quickly go over those items and unfortunately, i'm reading that off any phone small prinlt you know that you approved a

budget we submitting to the mayor's office in february and has items that basically no cuts in the addition with positions for adult prospective services and other stray positions but not a lot of extra things in the budget lying enhancements for community services we were hoping that there will be a way to get those into our budget as well and the mayor certainly wanted to get some of those in one of the things the first thing i think that the community members have been asking for on our 5 year plan to include this this did portfolio that is the senior disabilities program he serve that has gotten transaction on the east coast i think and it is kind of a work subsidy program for older adults in our says adult disabilities

(2) 005-0000 a great start for us to wade into that world and try a pilot there so that's exciting and case management enhancements people in the community you've heard the case management in dos has been kind of not that funding has not kept up with the need for increases in salaries and the mayor recognized this is a program that has really not kept up even at the level of the some of the programs kept us u up to the case management programs have continued to lose staff and a decrease in quality the challenge of hiring people that you are bilingual has been greater than in the past so when we look at the workers we have in internally in department of aging & adult services or in the city and the salaries in the

community obviously don't keep up near where they should so people leave etc. so the mayor has put one hundred and 75 thousand so we can start the process of raising the salaries and hopefully with worker retention in the case management program the conservatory the department of health and the department of aging & adult services has started thinking how to streamline the conservatorship is he people are significantly in emergency and needs conservativelyship and people are living in the community and need the corn certificateship services we're trying to make that happy with dpw and others

so people slipping through the crack on the street and the recidivism pattern before and after within between the street and facilities we'll help them better there is positions in there and also upgrades for the current staff to be at the same level of the adult prospective services we're looking a clarification change there we also looking at a supported home pilot we're calling 2 that is something that supervisor eric mar and a number of advocates in the community and our community-based providers are trying out behaving because we know there is a need for in-home care for people that don't qualify for the - so there's

obviously people with a lot of money can a pay for their own home care but the middle-income or others in san francisco that can't afford it the budget and the legislative 234569 estimated first year thousand people to stay at home safely we're try a polite from the mayor's office put one million dollar in annually for the next two years to try this out and we're going to have some issues around prioritization who gets to serve but really to see if we can change some of the outcomes for people if they get that home care they'll go to a hospital fewer times and end up in nursing services and that's exciting to get to try that out for the different populations the dignity fund the mayor's

office has put a plug in for the dignity fund at a place for $6 million in year two which is 2016-2017 and year one prelims we need to staff up a little bit in the dignity fund passes we're lucky positions and consultant to get off the ground the mayor's office put in $6 million for 2017-2018 and the dignity fund legislation was introduced by supervisor cowen last week at 2 percent the property that will be more library $33 million in the firefighter to malia cohen's office the dignity fund coalition and i will be meeting to figure out a way to get closer so the mayor's office and the coalition and the board are

more in agreement about startup amounts and nutrition so one of the things you may remember that last year the board of supervisors had quite a bit of money into nutrition one time only money and generally speaking when the board does things one time the mayor didn't pickup and maybe not the way it was intended and in this case the mayor really wanted to put money into nutrition so $1.2 million - that's about half; right? so the mayor put in 1. $2 million of the 2. $4.01 time back into his budget and so that maintenance a lot of the services we started this year

and enhanced this year and in addition to that, the mayor has put in an ad back for the one time only housing subsidy amount we got last year that was $700,050,000 so that again was a one time add back with the board and the mayor elected to backfill that completely it is now in the baseline budget and i think just to give you detail about the nutrition so what that $1.2 million that the mayor has elected to backfill 9 lunch program with the chance program the routine i restaurant voucher program and home delivered groceries and home delivered meals yeah. those 3 things so it will help because we won't have to cut back on the services but not getting us

quite there i guess the last thing i wanted to mention the scattered site housing contract that was with with the department of health will be moving to the department of aging & adult services and the contract is now with the nonprofit provider called brilliant corners it is great we'll have if that and actually sit in the community fund and it is something that the community living fund is able to assess for a long time it is great so it seems like it is in effect i think that about it in terms of the enhancements from the mayor as you may know now the board has the budget and the board will be looking at other things we want to commend fund and maybe things they don't want to fund and asking us for a lot of details for the positions we got into the budget and

president some justification on those but looking at our vacant and all those things obviously they have interests in they're own district and interests in terms of the program oh, one other thing i didn't i neglected to mention the mayor put in a second deputy director for our department i'm personally excited but it is become really grown a lot a lot of work for one permanent to analyze so that's in our budget as well >> i think - the only thing i want to say two things one i was at the california's association of agencies our aging one of the things they're talking about this year is trying to enhance kind of the face of angling in california and there - we're going to be doing a media

campaign california wide to put a positive face on angling and everywhere i go i'm conscious and i'm sure you are as well we see so many negative images of aging how bad it is to get odd old and great reasons we should be paying attention to aging this year a number of us that are aging in this country and going to need services and going to have to support each i'm excited we're b be working and actually i'll be chairing the education committee it will be interesting to see what other people's takes and promoting the best practices if every community in california and get that out into the public and have a much stronger public presence i guess so that's exciting and then the last thing i wanted to mention on june 8th and i

think all of you gotten an invitation on june 8th we'll be celebrating world elderly abuse day in san francisco and our celebration will be at the herbst theater it starts at 4 and goes to 7 and paul henderson and from the mayor's office will be the master of the ceremonies and he's running for supreme court judge and very entertaining 0 it should be fun and then dave jones commissioner will be coming to speak in the beginning and talking about elderly abuse awareness i believe that still will be lit up in purple in awareness of elder abuse there is a lot going on and the senior at the adult

and protective serves will be there and people will come back by thank you that concludes my report. thank you. >> any questions. >> yes. >> wait. >> go ahead. >> commissioner sims. >> thank you the additional budget that was provided by the mayor's office this is one time only or ongoing is that will be ongoing funding. >> those are baseline items. >> okay. >> concerning the dignity fund do we have 6 supervisors. >> signed in? >> you know i'm actually not sure about that part this is a question for the dignity fund coalition i believe. >> so from the dignity fund passed the $32 million will be affected; right? in cases that it didn't pass the mayor will

put in the one million dollars. >> well, no i think what will happen the mayor's office and the coalition and the board are all working together to find a way to come to agreement about the legislation ultimately looks like we don't know it would be that it goes in that way and a different way. >> the 2 percent is in the subsidy. >> correct. >> okay commissioners did you have questions. >> anyone else? >> yeah. >> sherren you were talking about it in home support for the middle-income and one million dollars for two years. >> it is one million dollars for each of two years. >> for each of two years. >> right. >> a pilot project. >> right. >> what's the plan for dos to get this program off the ground

that's a great question we didn't found out until this week that will be in the mayor's office budget we have to look at setting it up to study it so we need to know the outcomes we will have what we'll do a subsidy program so is it not going to be you know we did try a piloted for people to qualify for in-home care services but had to pay something we didn't need to study is that will be a subsidy important people who either don't qualify or want to pay for one we'll bring back the stakeholder that kind of helped to put this together and work with the community living fund probably a mechanism we have in

place and decide how to prioritize people that is hard we'll not have enough money for 14 thousand people and don't know this is quite the right number we can probably serve to 50 people in a year and so we have to think carefully how what populations we want to look at it and learn and it will be something that will start as soon as we know that is getting to the budget and how much money we'll start those discussions soon. >> it's right around the corner. >> i'm aware we need to get going on that. >> thank you. >> any other questions commissioners you had a question from - >> come forward.

>> good morning commissioner president james and commissioners congratulations director ma fasten and welcome i appreciate this egypt for the recreation of the one time board of supervisors funding for your information commissioners when it came to that one time funding cuts we were notified in the senior center we'll be kit $77,000 that notification of cuts and again, we're grateful for this board of supervisors submitting that one time monies to support us but when you get notified $7,000 cuts that effects your nutrition program basically a cut for me this morning i wanted clarification

are in terms of the mayors budget i'm grateful that the mayor's office of budget will restore out of the 2. $4 million a one time money cuts to a 1.2 that means it, it is a partial funding and commissioners respective this is still a cut for us in the senior network as the executive director who is responsibly for that in terms of advocacy for the seniors we're talking about less meals so for us we're needing your support and the departments in terms of the recess central station we need full restored funding it talks to the need and programs for seniors in san francisco is a lot of dialogue going on and a lot of advocacy for different things in terms of for the

seniors in san francisco the dignity fund is one of the alternative transportation that is positive it is still far apart and needs to be negotiated i wanted everyone to please pay attention to that commissioner president james i know i have one minute and 31 seconds left i wanted to thank you for that emphasis and it is hard san francisco everybody knows it is going far we know about that but we need to participation to the seniors that built san francisco and we need san francisco need to respective our seniors in aging give them the dignity they deserve thank you very much. >> you wanted to comment on that. >> thanks steve yes. i think that all of the letters that went out about the nutrition cuts we should had to

know strong legislation was entered a week ago we know from the mayors budget he's on board for the support of dignity fund we're very, very far apart be in terms of the proposal we have the legislation we have and what the mayor is proposing at this point for us we'll be meeting with supervisors many of them have a asked for a ram up a reasonable way to get the money and plan and spend it we are talking about proposals with them but the mayor's office is $6 million is the biggest we've ever see in the forgive first year that is less than we've been getting through the community advocacy we've got a lot more work to do we have meeting with the mayor's office and plan for the future we have to plan for people with aging hiv and the people with

disabilities and 25 percent of the population thirty percent in 2030 we need to plan for veterans many fall out in terms of the services they get and agency the home care pilot a lot of seminars and people with disabilities that need help at home and barely holding on paying their bills when it comes time to stay in their home they need assistance but the dignity fund needs to continue after that. >> now we need to move on interrupted with the public comment but anyway, advisory council report. >> good morning commissioner president james and commissioners executive director mcfadden the advisory council meet on may 18th and the

in that funding since 1984 and while inflation has gown up one and 80 percent we have new business we discussed the fact that revenues are coming in slower than expected the amount of funding from the state level for programs making less than expected by combrsh is interested in a bundle of legislation what those delays we didn't discuss but keep on tracking this is the end of the two year at the beginning the session a brand new set of legislation to look at and there is discussion at the state level about allowing people that are on citizens advisory committee to have access to cal works and funding - to nutrition services currently they don't that's what

we're continuing to monitor a new piece of legislation that we discussed and that was disabled plaque card reform a piece of legislation by assembly person god ab 2602 currently the disabled placards allow for free parking meters throughout the state that was kind of gone pursuant to intentionally intended the city and county are losing money and concern over where their properly used or not so this bill will based the two tier solution a report from donald and others from 2015 their public policy analysts and bill will do away with free that concludes my remarks for people

with placards and monitor the way that placards are issued the cities and counties loss millions annually and no reimbursement and michigan and illinois have to r a two tier solution weigh look at that and san francisco advisory committee is supporting this bill and dos participated in that the advisory committee and looking at 6 recommendations would be for the city and increasing blue zones and improving the enrollment of that will be the order. issued and placard approvals and removing the exemption and establish reasonable time limits for the parking i wanted to give you an updated on two other bills obviously did

placard and many of the bills we've been monitoring such is ab 1584 on increases in the supplemental they've been in committee and in suspense that's the way the appropriations committee looks at they bundle them together and look like how to divvy up the funds. and there's one that is the senator louis sb 447 that is the aging and long term court reporting council referred to the committee on aging and long term care and the update on the dignity fund and at the federal level the credit for care act

2016 is in the was and means committee that allows up to 3 thousand per year deduction for long term care and then the bills on autism legislation senate bill there is no action on >> are there any questions. >> i know i talked fast. >> yes. i'm very much interested in the placard because it does allow for definition yeah. very much and getting around in san francisco. >> their not do away with the placards but. >> the two two tier. >> the two tier time limits of how this you can park for free or if they look at the meters and the sergeant of the meters so far payment some are not assessable for easy of payment so that's what their looking at

and establishing circumstances under which some whether that is on the placard itself with the presentation where some disabled and elderly would have access to free parking but not a broad free parking across the board two reports and i can send them to bridget to include in your minutes. >> yes. and because getting independence. >> it calls on the dpvm to track the placards and there is the the devil is in the details but all i'll send this to bridget. >> for the details okay. thank you. >> one comment it is shown a program they limit the plan for 4 hours for

medical. >> that's what their looking like. >> a lot of things we know about but i think for our it is quite - >> that's the timeframe they're talking about part of two tier solution. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. >> next is the long term care coordinating council. >> good morning, commissioners i'm ship a member of the long-term care council we met on may 12th the first presentation a needs sergeant that recommends 5 years for expanding the areas of service and strengthening existing programs and improving awareness and serving adult disabilities and in coalition

with other departments and a presentation for the middle-income study which the director's report contained as well i have nothing to add a discussion on meetings with supervisors and i believe that most of those meetings have occurred in the month of may we'll get a report back at the next meeting thursday june 9th and that's about it from my report any questions. >> you mentioned you study and recommend 5 areas for senior services okay name those 5 areas. >> i named them but i'll go over them more slowly the first expanding new areas of services this is for seniors and adult disabilities the second is strengthening the existing programs, the third is

improving awareness and messaging of task services the figure out serve adult disabilities more effectively and the first time is collaboration with other departments. >> would you put a dollar amount for those. >> no we have not this is mark farrell an assessment no budget analysis. >> you'll follow-up with those improvements. >> that's on the directors plate. >> any other questions. >> well we'd like to wait for the directors answer. >> thank you so sir, is really reporting on the long term kr0r7bd council so he basically heard the same presentation on the needs assessment in the area plan the specifically needs ascertainment we've heard from you commissioner ow so some of the

same recommendations when rose and i did the presentation is what he's referring to we'll devolve into those areas just pointing out things that are important for the department as we move forward and you know one of the things we hope to do is that in the future we will be able to attach dollars signs to various recommendations when we do the needs assessments and hopefully, we'll look at gaps we're not there yet but those are the recommendations he had when i was thinking about when i wanted to pay attention to going forward. >> imagine. >> staff report. >> well, i guess you can judge. >> we're all here.

>> but what do you expect we have a big rally a senior rally and in sacramento thousands of seniors and a model and chant was seniors count and they were here they'll have you all chanting that when you get a huge group of gray haired voter they are their associates saying seniors count they pay attention in sacramento so that's one good thing one thing that was nutrition georgia again was part of it throughout the last year when we had different representatives from state programs and departments talk to us come out nutrition was right up there on the top of their concerns and it came out ♪

good the concerns about nutrition and programming for nutrition and amongst other things we'll keep the seniors healthy and independent what was covering all of this was that all over the state including us seen the percentage of seniors in the population has been increasing every year and will continue to increase in the future and that must be considered in the meantime when you look at the budget programs for seniors have been frozen and cut back and a few have been cut out so that financial backing is going down while the number of seniors is increasing so that is something we need to

consider as we look at things, of course, if we keep on increasing we might take over that was an interesting program and one thing that change you know working with the staff the state staff for the commission has been good i've enjoyed it their bright and kevin about us they organ well and follow-up on what they say but what i saw at that meeting the respective they have from the members of the government from people from different businesses and programs that were there you can, see they'll respective them and worked with them we're asking their advice and wanted to go together with them so what it means is if we're trying to

develop a program to get something through we have a fantastic resource in the staff from the state commission their generous and they care they really care about what we do and knowledgeable so seeing them interacting at the rally and let me see what a fantastic right away that concluded my report. >> thank you case. >> good morning, commissioners valerie i'm a board member of case and also the director of the senior center this time of year is busy for case our budget and advisory committee work hard to make sure

the mayor and board of supervisors are aware of our podium and at the same time, we're supporting the budgetus coalition podium as well as different security task force to today is news from director mcfadden what guarantee good news not over until the final budget is approved and continuing to meet with the board of supervisors which meetings have been set up during the senior rally we had in conjunction with the senior disabilities folks we hand-carried over 2 thousand pot cards to respective supervisors and mayor they're very aware of what we're asking for we also want to invite you all we're excited one of our member agencies institute on angling

has offered a continuing ed course at the next membership meeting i have handouts flyers i didn't get them out but one of the things that are happening at the senior centers the phenomena of bowling and it is something that we've seen over the years but it has become more acute and so we started looking for somebody to help us begin the conversation how to handle to preserve the safe and friendly environmentalist for everyone but handle those kind of individuals challenging to the senior centers we don't say a mental health component we may need to look at that in the future we 79 the senior center services is to be available for all people at times the acuteness is beyond

our staffing level abilities so this presentation and course that patrick from the harbor called how to identify and respond to challenging and bullying behaviors we're offering continuing ed for many progressives if you want i'll leave the flyers and free to our members and if our members are bringing other folks we'll to get a sense how many more foams o people might be there we'll be prepared we're excited it is the beginning of the conversation i'm getting more calls from my colleagues from the same issues and some of the people we're having problems with radio bouncing around from one senior center to another and we will to do the right thing but know what

your limits are and other maybe partners can do to help us what that that's the beginning and i think that our next membership meeting is june 13th at the groceries center and we're going to get started right on time so the people that are asking for continuing ed can meet their requirements but it operationally is an interesting session. >> any questions. >> yes. >> emily. >> yes. >> i'm just wondering where you folks nonprofit organizations have been tapping into the management services by the public health department and started to come you know once a week or month whatever and educate our staff also. >> we're looking at that commissioner i think that traditionally the older adult

individual is not open too much to going to clinics but we have a referral to the mental health services amend as you may know older adults have the right to fail and we make appropriate referrals refuse the services and go to the next center we're looking at training so we can handle situations more carefully and more mind fully. >> i'm just saying that you know has been come to your center center. >> we've tried if that and probably have to do a more official invite and get the higher-ups to support that but the department of health didn't send their professionals out to our centers we'll look at that. >> it will be for the seniors

it will be a non-threatening environment and maybe someone from the department of health. >> we'll look at that thank you. >> next this is we have some public comment but item t is there any general public comment at this time? hearing none, old business >> none new business okay. all i's require a vote item a supervise transfer of ownership the staff is melissa can i have a motion to discuss. >> so moved and seconded. >> good morning commissioner president james and director

mcfadden i'm the acting deputy director at the department of aging & adult services so this is referring to the rosa parks senior center and the human services agency will be taking over ownership of the rosa parks senior center in the next few months the final date is yet to be determined the property was offered to the city as a cost off $1 currently the office on the aging offers programs at the rosa parks senior self-center this acquisition allows the facilities are operating appropriately at the site no rent as we will the site will be owned - we'll provide maintenance and janitorial services this has an inadequate but will be taken care of a sewer line it is needing work so

the developer will be fixing that at no cost to us and so this problem has resulted in the assembly bathrooms for the clients for the clients using staff bathrooms this proposes sanctuary conditions and so's a big issue in the center that will be corrected that the acquisition when the site is completed an additional one and 50 seniors in the complex of the rosa parks senior are supervise will serve three hundred clients at the rosa parks center and we request your support in the acquisition of this property. >> are there any questions. >> what's the location. >> on the - >> commissioner ow. >> is it close to market

street. >> it is golden gate and between golden gate and turk. >> so the senior housing; right? >> yes. currently and doubling they're building angle additional tower. >> how large is the tower going to be. >> an additional one hundred and 50 seniors we're just acquiring the property that did senior center is on. >> what about a new tower is it going to be the dos going to take over the tower. >> no, just the senior center and that building. >> thank you. >> okay. >> okay commissioners commissioner sims. >> is there a precedent for this has the city done this in the past. >> i don't know. >> the city has done this with

certain buildings i think that the impetus the mayor's office of housing was really looking to make sure that the senior center is in good hands and the immigrant it oversees is the department it understand the adult disabilities as you may know the rental assistance demonstration project where new developers or new development management organizations are taking over the management of senior housing and not just senior housing but the senior sites that the authority has run previously this is kind of an unusual situation in this case the tenderloin development corporation don't care over the housing and will manage the housing and it is attached as

commissioner ow mentioned there is one tower there already and another tower of senior housing but the senior center is in the middle they don't have the expertise to run senior and dos has a nonprofit provider right now the orientation is bayview hunters point senior services they run the western edition senior center as well. >> bayview so is it make sense to oversee those services but we don't have the expertise to manage the building itself, however, human services agency does because human services agency he manage a lot of those and has a history it make sense to that. >> is there a budget attached to this.

>> so we're already bayview is operating the senior center and the main things will be an increase in janitorial services and purchase a sink and those sinks at all fall within the contingency so no additional request requests to modify the budget in any way. >> go ahead commissioner. >> that bother me those are front loaded expenses that you anticipate by the long term cost of maintaining the building there must be an anticipated cost for the maintenance of this facility roofs and walls and paint and floor you know repair and replacement over time a burden cost somebody has to pay that. >> john correct me if i am wrong that falls into the facilities for the human

services agency. >> ; correct? >> yeah. >> so social service is that social services run out of by bayview hunters point or will we provide associate or social services there separate. >> they currently operate at the bayview and encouraging operating the senior center. >> are we serving meals how many people are we serving. >> yes. we are serving measles and do you know how many on an average daily and 50 people. >> the report indicates up to three hundred in captivity. >> right? >> are anticipated.

>> and what the abilities to increase that capacity are we increasing the capacity or maintaining the capacity. >> one of the things that they haven't tried to do they didn't know they've not tried to increase the capacity new we know that is the plan moving forward the senior center will be continuing to operate now they can work on increasing the capacity. >> so i wanted to separate this when you increase the capacity will that funding go to bayview hunters point to increase the capacity or will be a separate budget for the department to handle. >> so when we do any of the senior centers or active seminars we contract with the you know there are no a procurement process and if a mr. starr organization we negotiate that them how many people they'll serve and what the dollars look like i believe

right now we're in the middle of contract with them so if they were to minded toe increase we'll go through the rfp process and nail propose that and someone will propose that and see who wins the contract and negotiate about the number of people they're serving right now they have in the budget whatever they have we can't give them more money if they serve more people but certainly proposed that or other organization when we go out to rfp again i don't know when the contract ended we're in mid-contract. >> we're in the middle of a contract only two years left on that contract. >> there were concerns about the food i've heard concerns about that. >> we're always i'm personally happy to hear the concerns and

i'll be happy to look at it. >> one of the members of the advisory council said something. >> i'll be happy to look at that. >> any other questions. >> okay. >> could i have a motion. >> public comment. >> any public comment on this? >> any public comment? hearing none, call for the >> i. >> opposed? the i's have it. that motion carries. >> thank you. >> review and approval the fiscal year 2016-2017 area plan and health insurance and the high cap budget and state budget app one six and 7 and 2016-2017 dash those 6 and all subsequent

department i'm talking about the agencies not encouraging - i don't know i'm just wondering because their. >> they're not supported to encourage but we've had situation more than encouragement so we encourage them, no to the be overly encouraging that pressures people it is out there and we certainly hope that people donate to the extent but a suggested documents. >> the other question i have is well unfortunately linda is not here i just observed from the congregate meal no money funds for nutrition counseling and education but for the home delivered meals two line items. >> (inaudible).

rationals. >> so for the obama buds man the federal and state and each one as funding allocations it guide the way those funds are distributed so specifically for the sniff - >> the very last one on the obama bud ombudsmen. >> the decrease in money is not a decrease in services this is as martha noted various source of income for thema buds one oman it is funding that is corrected from the licensing and it maybe livelihood this is

down because either less money was paid in or less beds in san francisco right now so it factors down the amount of money we need. >> any other questions. >> okay any public comment? harpooning i'll call for the vote >> i. >> opposed? the i's have it. that motion carries. >> item c request and interrogation to are you new the grants with ed center for children and families for the vision of family caregiver for 2016 and jungle 2018 in the amount of one and $8,000 plus

not to exceed one and 9 thousand plus can i have a motion it discuss. >> so moved. >> seconded. >> good morning, commissioners and director analysis from the aging today, we seek our approval for the reauthorization for the family woods the 1915 (k) community first optionship program through the reauthorization of the older americans act the national family of support program was established that service called for two types of caregivers one of the types the family caregiver and the caregiver called kinship through the kinship supports grandparents and others usually those children live with their caregivers inform variety of reasons a difficult process for the caregiver that

is at their time of their life to help their children raise their grandchildren and they're the seniors are taking care of or raising their grand their including the information services, community education on caregiver and a variety of supportive services there are caregiver assessment services and caregiver support groups and caregiver training and case management services and respite care and finally i conducted a monitoring visit in january and found the program in full compliance and oakland since the last time thankful built an internal database to track their services one of the staff members built the program on her own time and on the weekends and i'll like to say they've got a more accurate compiling the

services of providing and the fact that someone internally did that was amazing i want to give note is that we ask fewer approve for the kinship program i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> commissioners. >> commissioner loo. >> telling me what the the special event. >> a variety throughout the year one of the special events they would cack the grandchildren to a movie and then a special event for the senior grandparents so they have a support group which i've sown in action before it is great the folks know each other and support each other especially one program to get the kids ought to do activities for the kids so it gives respite to the

grandparents to do a variety of activities brings fruits and vegas vegetables. >> like an operation monday through friday. >> we have 52 weeks okay. it is 5 days so 360 days of operation not 244. >> 255. >> i see what you're saying oh. >> so i'm sorry ask your request again. >> 52 weeks in a requester 52 times 4 is 200 and 60 days and listed on mine. >> no, no, no

a digital. >> like a web x. >> i think that skype is another one. >> i was curious the age demographics it encourage to see the grandparents taking advantage of those kinds of platforms and keep in mind that the grand is assessing those a transfer of learning from grandkids to grandparents. >> yeah. do you know the youngest and oldest grandparent age. >> whew i honestly do not know the - >> there's a some young people

like in their 30s and 40s they maybe older grandparents and wondering if - >> right. >> how you there's a difference. >> yeah. yeah. >> in terms of needs. >> right so what i've seen the 3 times i've gone on site and done the monitoring reviews i see active seniors who are engaged in the program i mean when i walk in on the group people turn around and smile additional happy regardless of their age their engaged in the services they're provided so - >> so you don't see gravrpts that may have been a disability and i can't comment. >> would that impose a different kind of services or

require more respite. >> right. >> of younger entrant i'm looking for that. >> my guess it would that's why the services are varied and so many opportunities for kinds of services in the program you know there's the groups, there's the classes and the case management component so all those ways in which the services are provided to the seniors depending upon the age or disability. >> but you don't have that hearing none, other questions. >> any public comment? any public comment? >> human right can i have a >> i. >> opposed? the i's have it. that motion carries d request an authorization to renew the contract agreement with- the associate for the

an officer-involved shooting is a tragedy and one we're from the mist of reforms for the police department making sure that everybody is safe but whatever an incident of on officer-involved shooting we want to make sure that that we understand and whether or not it fits both our reforms and why on officer will be required to use his or her weapon in heir circumstance i know your communities of san francisco everyone wants to better understand to move on the santa sanctity of life the most important policy in the police department so i simultaneously right now chief suhr that providing information to the people there in the bayview on what happened i don't have all

the circumstances by do know that involved an individual that was in a stolen vehicle but at the same time whether or not it required the use of deadly force is something we need to look at very, very specifically with the promise that our police department is improving it's policies and should take life only when other lives are in danger and that's where the circumstances have to be reviewed specifically ufb i'm upset about that because i take all the officer-involved shootings very sorrowful on behalf of everyone in the city and want everyone to know that that the purpose of this gathering today is to really keep our neighborhoods safe and clean with the tremendous amount of involvement we have and i don't want to ever loss it
