president olague: thank you. >> hello, my name is holly hayes. i'm an employee in the finance department of larkin street youth services. before i worked for them, i was their neighbor. for a little over two years -- i live less than two blocks from larkin street's main hub on sutter street. like any neighborhood, the neighborhood had its problems. but the problems didn't ever come from larkin street or the youth that were served there. in fact, i felt that the presence of larkin street programming made this neighborhood better and also safer, both for us neighbors and for the youth that were served there. by giving youth a place to go for the support and positive activity that all people need and deserve, especially those young people who have been rejected by their families or marginalized in their home communities, as so many of the clients at larkin street have been. larkin street helps its client tap into the resiliency and potential that are a hallmark of the young, alounge them to be independent adults and contributing members of society.
