. >> good afternoon, my name is stacy lambbright and i work at bay area legal aid as a staff attorney in the domestic violence family law unit where i help the low income survivors get retraining orders, divorces, custody orders, support orders so that they can, so that they and their children can be free from abuse. legal service corporation is our pry primary funder and our lsd funds have been cut for the calendar year 2013 by 8 percent and this has resulted to a loss of legal aid of $225,000. additionally we may lose cdbg and other government funding due to sequestration. these funds will be vital in maintaining our current service level and will allow us to hire an additional attorney, which is something that we would not be able to do if we do not receive these funds at this critical time. and given the current fiscal and uncertainties at the federal level, this funding will help solidify the domestic violence and legal services for low income survivors in san francisco. on behalf of each of my clients in the bay area and legal aid i want to thank each of you thanks. >> next spea
