and i have had the pleasure of serving on the task force since october, and we have had many, we have been working on many issues that i would like to continue, for one, we just, we just we did our by laws and i was ready for that and i think that we, are moving in a good direction in terms of having a more equitable for complaint ans and i think that we have a long way to go on that and i think that they are headed in the right direction and also, we are and we have, and we have it from the index of the records in june, and this, and this task force is been taking in that we had a presentation in our last meeting but in the record of the folks and we hope to have them back at a future meeting for an up date and also we have been working on the official's calendars which i know is a big issue that supervisor avalos supports. and so at this point, i will take any questions. >> thank you. and thank you to your service. >> actually started in october, so basically your term and you had a short term. >> i had a short term. >> i was filling the term of -- who has resigned. >> and so if you

and because of the incredible work of the 10-year-old task force, in our city, the food security task force we are much more aware of the huge needs that there are, and especially for the senior and people with disabilities and the children and families that are in need of food and security. i wanted to say that in 2005 when the food security task force was created, by the board of supervisors the charge was to create a city wide plan that would address the food security for all of our neighborhoods and all of our people in the city and since we reauthorized the task force three years ago they have continued to do incredible work for our city, to and even rec mepding that the board of supervisors pass a resolution, last year, that we committed ourselves and our city to dramatically, reduce or to end the hunger and the food insecurety by 2020 and it is a huge task and i know that for the ten years of work, all of the community based organizations from just about every neighborhood that that is a task that this amazing task force has led the charge on with the grassroots groups from thr

also, we are and we have, and we have it from the index of the records in june, and this, and this task force is been taking in that we had a presentation in our last meeting but in the record of the folks and we hope to have them back at a future meeting for an up date and also we have been working on the official's calendars which i know is a big issue that supervisor avalos supports. and so at this point, i will take any questions. >> thank you. and thank you to your service. >> actually started in october, so basically your term and you had a short term. >> i had a short term. >> i was filling the term of -- who has resigned. >> and so if you are reappointmented what are some of the areas that you would like to be able to focus on in your work on the task force. >> again, really the by laws to make our policy and practices a little more concrete, and so that we know that we have the procedures so that one complainant may know what their (inaudible) and making sure that we have a fair hearing. also the calendar of officials and of course, the it issues are also big issues that we nee

members of the task force can refer to. so, it is almost as if every case is a new case, even if it is the same exact issue. and problem. that is coming before them. and that, could easily be responded to by the task force and not have to take up a valuable hours if not days of time. and that is something that i have suggested before, that i have wanted to work on before. and lack of resources, and lack of will. i would be assertive and dedicate a lot of time to make this happen even if it was a paper binder it with be helpful. and you know, but i think that with, where we are with the technology right now, and i think that in the city attorney's office, at least, whoever is serving, they have some certificate of tracking system, for previous decisions that was made, but, i don't know how robust it is. it is in the available to anybody. except for them. >> and so that, those two areas i think are really important, and i think that as chair avalos suggested that some historical knowledge is important also and we do have a lo

tasks aren't well defined? they said we're going to set collective tasks at the same time we're studying women because then it will be gender neutral. but as they progressed down this path, what they've done is actually peel out groups of all male teams and then varying groups of mixed gender teams and they're comparing the performance of these teams against each other which to me looks like a competition of all-male teams against varying levels of female teams, and the problem with that is that these women are brand new to these occupations. they were just -- they're right out of the school, and the males in the teams may have had -- likely have had a lot of time performing in those occupations so it wouldn't surprise me at all if teams with women aren't going to perform as these seasoned teams of men. they were going to try to mitigate against that by assigning newly trained men to these all-male teams and hopefully they've done that and the results will be fair and they will actually measure or set some gend

but those studies that isolate social and task cohesion found that task cohesion is linked to mission effectively than social cohesion. in fact, one major study concluded simply, quote, "military performance depends on weather service members are committed to the same goals, not whether or not they like one another." knowing the task cohesion is a greater indicator of true effectively is significant. because when we focus on task cohesion, women are not a factor. leadership is. here, there's room to learn from other militaries that have integrated women into combat. for example, research on the israeli defense forces found that cohesion can be inspired through shared commitment to a mission, irrespective of previous social or personal interactions. a canadian report on gender and diversity determined the cohesion of a mixed gender combat unit was primarily a leadership challenge. in turn, research that conputs -- conflates social and task cohesion mistakenly overemphasizes the social dynamics and underestimates the role of leadership and training. moreover, they lead to potentially fl

he created the my brother's keeper's task force, a task force made up of almost every single cabinet member. he gave them 90 days to come back with a strategy on a series of recommendations, and they did just that. we're focused on a college career strategy. we are looking at young people zero to 24. and six key milestones in their lives, where if we can make a difference there, it can have long term transformation. you've seen in the past year all sorts of new and expanded grant programs, new public private partnerships, anything from department of labor and 100 million dollar apprenticeship program, which is making sure we're looking at this population. the corporation for opportunity americorps or even guidance where i think many of you know the statistics that we see, kids of color being suspended at extraordinarily high rates as early as prek, sometimes involving the law enforcement system. and when you used to kind of get put in the corner for that kind of thing, it's exciting to see what's happening on the policy side. on the play side, where my heart is, the president launche

a concept of creating a task force.the joint the joint terrorism task force established by the fbi are a model that has been studied by many academics as well as other ways to leverage the know-how and resources. one other one is an effective one the joint interagency task force based in florida. it's an interagency program with uniformed services. the full-time officers mother countries. the primary mission is countering illicit trafficking. they used to be just drug trafficking. they are encountering precursor chemicals as well as alien smuggling. how we can use these lessons learned and applied. >> my experience at 1st absolutely spot on. i do feel that you need almost an untouchable approach to this stuff. stuff. you need a group of people in charge to you after the money. and have global authority of rome. and has blood today china than anywhere else. in my testimony, massive amount. we have identified. guess what? people are so accepting billions of dollars a year from places like lebanon. we need a top-down appro

it's a concept of creating a task force. in the case of post 9/11 the joint terrorism task forces established by the fbi are a model that had been studied by many academics such as myself as well as other ways to actually leverage the know how and more importantly the resources that each of the agencies brings to bear. one other one which we did thotd discuss today is a very -- which we did not discuss today which is the joint terror -- joint interagency task force, based in key west, florida. it actually is intraagency with all the uniform services but more importantly the intelligence and the law enforcement agencies represented there as well as liaison full-time officers from other countries. their primary mission is countering illicit trafficking which already reflects the way they're changing the look -- instead it used to be drug trafficking. they're encountering a lot of precursor chemicals as well as sadly alien smuggling going through there. so it's a better way of how to use the lessons learned and more importantly

but that task force is an employer task force.here is a representative who is chairman of aetna, verizon is represented, and coca-cola among other groups. when you talk about community support and community prevention and data collection and data tracking, is there a synergy between these groups? have you guys talked? do you foresee a role for employer-based incentives? because those are quite real for employees or could be made quite real. they are not bound by the scoring rules that entwine congress and the administration. i wonder if that is also a way to gather data and look at it longitudinally. ms. loy: thank you very much for the question. i will make two comments and see if bill has something to add. you are correct, bpc has supported the council on health and innovation with the ceo's you describe. their findings last september looked at ways that employers could improve health and three buckets. one has to do with the health of the individual, one had to do with the health of the community, and one was having to do with

i saw a report this morning from the task force. it quotes the task force as saying, the u.s.epartment of homeland security should terminate the use of the state and local criminal justice system, including through detention notification, transfer requests, to enforce several immigration laws against several -- nonserious criminal offenders. i'm wondering, to fix the problem that we saw exposed in ferguson and in baltimore is there anybody, any one of our witnesses that thinks preventing state and local law enforcement officers from notifying the feds about people illegally in the country, that that would do anything to solve the problems in ferguson or baltimore? anybody? i mean, i'm also perplexed having been a prosecutor, rode along with law enforcement those days, a district judge handling felonies, we had a real problem with the federal government not picking up criminals that would tell our local law enforcement this person is illegally in the country so we had jurisdiction. the task force makes a comment about nonserious offenders. i think it was nine dwi's someone had

some of these tasks start at home.o with surveillance, intelligence gathering in facilities, maintaining our sovereign rights fishery ptection and a number of issues. we also support the police in various operations like counterterror and soso on. these tasks we believe we do fairly well. we have the available forces necessary to solve the issues on a day-to-day basis. they are well-trained. they are well-maintained. their readiness is very short. we are talking about hours to get these forces available. internationally, we contributed in 2014 in 10 different operations in 16 places around the world. 35% of the navy activity was abroad. we also believe we do those fairly well. again, this is forces that are highly trained. they are ready. and they have a high level of technology as well as our people have a high level of educationon. the feedback we get from allies like the united states is that we do fairly well. we asked more -- we ask more and we will never win anything on volume so we try to focus as much as possib
