this topic but i did see a presentation on trying to get the state assembly and senate to raise the ssi levels. and this is not a fluff issue. we are talking about people who are not getting enough to eat, who are not able to afford to stay indoors, to have a place indoors. who can't afford to get their medicine because they are living on less than $1,000 a month, sometimes much less. so i just wanted us all to keep a lookout for ways that we can help. one way we can help is to call senior disability action. they are very much an activist as the organization for people with disabilities. i don't have that number off the top of my head, but, maybe i will find it in my phone and make an announcement later in the meeting. >> congratulations and thank you, cochair, supanich. okay. i'm sorry, it's me again. we are back now with that contact information. i guess there is going to be a march rally and meeting with legislators on wednesday may 20, 2015. it will be the 12th annual disability capitol action day at the state capitol in sacramento. rides from san francisco to sacramento from the sa

i'm on ssi, not ssdi, because i somehow waited too long, i didn't even know what happened back then when i was sick and i retired from the work force 18 hours a day, 7 days a week, so i'm making $640 a month from ssi i recently took a letter to social security to tell them i was living here and i no longer had subsidized rent and they wanted to know how i was renting a room in san francisco on $600 a month and i said i sold my possessions when i moved and i said you had to report that. it became this thing where they didn't want to take the letter because there was no way out of that rock and a hard place. so i'm beting on san francisco that in the next 10 years i can go back into the work force somehow, but clearly it's a brutal market out there for housing and that's a really important thing to address for seniors. >> i've jeff sheehy, and i'm a member of the steering committee getting to zero effort and i was here recently talking to everyone about this. i want to thank supervisor wiener and the committee for taking on this issue. we spent a lot of time in getting to zero preventing n

management and we are doing a lot of linkages and referrals to primary care, medi-cal, the cap benefit, ssi so we can still get them help but it will be from the street. we are still identifying the hums and high users on the streets as well and then with the new navigation center we are also assessing different campments in the different districts. the word is out all over by now and a lot of people want to access the navigation center. so it makes it's easier for us and everybody is willing and wanting to go. it makes it a lot easier to do that. that's a partnership with sf p.d. and department of public works and they do the belongings from then campment and we have the care management. we have 16 care managers and two social workers supervising the two teams. one is here an one in the mission. they are getting referrals from, we triage all clients from different, they can be hospitals, mental health providers, just various. substance abuse providers. we get referrals from all over. it could be street like self referred. we triage them on thursday and pass them out to the different case m

those policies have given them a higher income than people received ssdi or ssi. those insurance policies will term out when they reach retirement age. it maybe 62 and 65, some 70. but many people, i will talk in a minute about how many, will see a very dramatic drop in their income such as they are no longer able to afford housing. where we want to put them in a program where there is housing subsidy where they will be able to remain in their current housing. what we don't want to see is people ignoring this problem until more people come into our office with an eviction notice and there is nothing we can do to get them any assistance so they will be able to stay in their housing. when they lose those units they will be gone. the city has tried to get it's arms around how many folks are going to be impacted in this manner. it is a little tricky to get numbers around people living with long-term disability insurance policies. many of those folks have interfaced with the publically funded hiv health system in a more limited manner so we don't have a great deal of d

gentleman is on general assistance which means he has a dedicated shelter bed and his partner is on ssi and she's not guaranteed a shelter bed and they don't know if they will be at the same facility and it creates problems for people with ptsd to be afraid at night and afraid to leave your possessions to go to an appointment even to sign up for a practitioner and we've seen a lot of people stuck on the streets and pets and other people with disabilities and others rely on companions service animals and if it does not have that designation, they are not able to stay with the owner. we have two great dog runs, but the best part is that they barely have been used because people can have their dogs with them at all times and they sleep with them. it's been a very very welcoming environment. we call ourselves low threshold so you don't go through a metal detecter. i am people are up at night for safety and sleep during the day. a shelter sister often lights out and i have had the people describe to me the people in the bed next to them is up and sleeps during the day. things have gone reall

on those variety of areas, adult protective services, ihss, and very definitely the expansion of the ssi and ssp work. they were all addressed. individual pieces of legislation are being developed along those lines to address those topics as we move through the budget process. calworks was also one of though topics. last year senators carol lui and wolk and beale worked on a report shattered system in california and the senior legislature group was informed of legislation that goes along with a number of those recommendations, so right now there are 19 bills. i have information on them that would address those recommendations in the report. 15 of those have been sent to the legislative committee for review. none of them are overlaps of the csl legislation that i mentioned at the last two commission hearings so they have asked for letters of report and resources for testimony. we don't have any specifics on that and as soon as we do we will let you know. so that's 23 bills in total that are being monitored right now by the csl. we were told that many of those will be two year bills so it'

age of 65 that long-term disability policy ends and they are then moved on to social security and /ssi and see a decline in income at this point. in particular this is thought to have a huge impact in the community of people living with hiv/aids. there are studies that show that the population in san francisco between 400 and 1200 individuals in san francisco that will fall into this aging disability situation. clients participating in the program are going to be asked to meet strict variability and reporting requirements to participate. >> >> the program as designed right now will serve 61 unduplicated clients on an annual basis. i believe this is a new program for daas moving into the housing realm and subsidy realm and we're excited about. the aids housing alliance and the contractor that we select side a new daas contractor but we're excited to work with. certainly in the initial interaction with them i have been impressed with the knowledge of the current housing situation in san francisco and their passion for working to advocate around that. >> thank you mike. may i have a motio

first nations that had ssd ssi, who were medicaid recipients initially and wiped them off the books inor of cash only or better insurance other than a federal government for statement insurance. it is an absolute shame. it lets a huge role in the health care system that people are trying desperately to find providers. host: what do you think congress could do? caller: truly mayhem, i do not knoww. if i knew i would be in office. i'm trying to shore up the expanded medicaid system known what anyway. i feel so bad. there are some people truly struggling and fighting or just trying to get basic health care. host: marie, virginia republican. caller: how are you doing? host: i am doing well. caller: i want to make to comment spirit i didn't know people remember that president reagan's that the way to socialism is the rachel through our health care. the reason people got on obamacare was because they were forced to. those are my comments. thank you very much. host: before you go. what do you want your republican party to do about it? caller: i wasn't to go back to the way things were. host:
