my name is alyssa may, i'm manager of youth services at the american red cross bay area chapter. i'm here in reference to the readiness agreement that you have on your agenda, on page 9, and i just would like to begin by saying that hearing from all these people is quite moving and i appreciate their thoughts and listening to them, what i have heard and i know is a reality for many of these teachers that are losing their jobs, i'm here to talk about how to keep the children safe. so with this reduction in staff, it's a little more challenging in the event of a disaster to keep the children safe in the schools. so i would encourage you to vote to renew the agreement for the next two years. i would like to thank you all for voting to have the agreement in this previous year. we actually signed up 30 of your schools, around 30 of your schools, to be members of this program, it's a free program that the red cross offers, and i hope that when you all are in the schools, this school year, you encourage the schools that have not become members to do so. it helps them to increase their p
