i want to just echo what oscar said and also what kim said previously, regarding how it starts at home. and the familis that come in they are constantly coming in and there has not, and it is just been getting progressively worse. they either doubled up, tripled up, or they are displaced and they have to leave the city. south of market, the action now currently serves over 200 families and even with the application process of trying to get them into the affordable housing, that process is also very difficult because it is also in the language. and so, it is i think, it is important that we are having this, and in this conversation continues. and we continue in that, and because we are all part of this, and affordable housing needs to be for the families and our working families, so, thank you. >> >> good evening, everybody, my name is ramond and i am the lead organizer of the community action network and currently i have been working with 25 to 30 youth, and you know, regarding this issue, and i have had the privilege of talking to them about what they care the most, you know? and defi
