. >> greetings, supervisors, david elliot lewis. i am a cochair of the mental health board of san francisco and i was also appointed to the mayor's care advisory task force. interestingly, both groups, both the commission and the task force, could not agree on laura's law. it was very devicible for both groups. it's been very devicible for my own community. i'm a consumer as well. it's been like a fault line in the recovery community, dividing people. supervisor campos, i want to thank you for your amendments. i think they actually improve the law as is stated. however, i would state what you are supporting is still ultimately a coercive process. well, no one is going to be necessarily thrown in jail for not taking their medications. you are talking about appointing an oversight group that will basically pressure somebody to receive treatment under the threat if you don't receive treatment, you will then be put under an involuntary court ordered process. that is coercion and coercion doesn't work. none. research shows coercion works
