ucsf and the city have a long partnership beginning 150 years ago, when ucsf doctors began caring for san franciscans in the city's general hospital. today ucsf clinicians continue to care for the city's most vulnerable, including children and adults, at san francisco general hospital and in a range of outstanding community-focused programs for those suffering from mental illness and substance use disorders. from our division of city-wide case management, our division of substance abuse and addiction management, our psychiatric emergency services to name just a few. as chair of the department of psychiatry at ucsf, i could not be more proud of our people and our long-standing partnership with the city that has allowed us to work every day to make a difference in the lives of our patients and their families. as a representative of ucsf here today, i can't stress enough our commitment to collaborate in taking on these big challenges, our department of psychiatry, the new homelessness and housing initiative, our students, our faculty and trainees are all determined to work together to fi

we convened leaders from city departments, from ucsf, from s.f. general hospital, and a variety of community-based service providers. we conducted dozens of stakeholder interviews, including a focus group at the respite center. we engaged closely with the department of public health throughout the process, checking assumptions and findings against the experience of our city partners. now, as the mayor said, the findings are in. we need to know the names and needs of everyone who is homeless with a behavioural healthcare need, provide wrap-around services that promote stabilization and a path to permanent housing, and ensure that systems and services proactively address and reduce disparities, especially among black and lgbtq individuals experiencing homelessness. tipping point's role going forward will be to fund the priority investments in the department of public health and the service community, while encouraging our philanthropic partners and peers to do the same. we are taking the first steps towards making this vision a reality. today we are
