these are the things that speak to the quality of life and the haulmarks of a functioning and vibrant city that all residents can enjoy, so we need a fully staffed fully funded police department with the appropriate resources. thank you very much. >> supervisor cohen: thank you. next speaker. >> hello, commissioners. david wu, of south of market community action network. i'm here urging you today to please restore funding to the united families program as part of the larger budget justice coalition ask. it is unacceptable that our most vulnerable residents are constantly under funded. our united families program connects working class immigrant parents and grandparents to the resources they need in a culturally competent manner. please do not strip away these important services for san franciscans that need it the most. again, i urge you to support the funding ask of the budget justice coalition and a.p.i. council for a just budget. thank you. >> supervisor cohen: do you have a figure? >> for the youth program, it is 100,000 annually, and for the united families, program, 50,000 annually.

we have the unique feature of being up against the vibrant city, and yet we manage to have a working port, but the environmental stewardship that goes into that kind of management is really quite something. stephen, you mentioned sea level rise. thank you for that. i know i've got a few growns i think the first time when i introduced and -- groeans i think the first time when i introduced and said i wanted sea level rise to be considered in every project. but i think everyone has risen to the challenge and we've demonstrated the importance in leadership to sea level rise not just to san francis not -- to the entire bay, not just the city of san francisco. there's some of you that fall into literally everything. lindy low. even when i was on the board of supervisors, i had designs of dog parks down on the waterfront here. diane, thank you for indulging me in making sure we did have dog parks included in our projects. one highlight for me that i see every time i head home now is the bayview rise project. when i was asked to serve as the port's representative on the selection committee
