“This directive will break the cycle of homelessness, addiction and government failure by transforming our homelessness and behavioral health response.”

We are breaking the cycle. We will bring accountability to our homelessness and drug crisis response by: ➡️Getting people the help they need. ➡️Reclaiming our shared spaces and ensuring public safety for everyone. ➡️Responsibly managing taxpayer resources.

Until now, San Francisco has had nine different teams responding to the crisis on our streets. And still, every San Franciscan—including myself—has walked by someone suffering and wished they could do more. Today, we are launching a new integrated neighborhood street team model

We can’t create change without our community. Last night, I took questions at a Tenderloin town hall at St. Anthony's. I’m committed to delivering real result for these families, business owners, and more—every San Franciscan deserves to feel safe in their neighborhood.

We have completed 30 days operational at the mobile triage unit to improve street conditions on 6th street. Here’s a memo outlining data collected, what we learned, how the pilot is informing our work going forward. What worked well: coordination of PD / health / social service

One of the greatest challenges we face is the dual crisis of homelessness and drug addiction. And I see the struggle every day—on our streets, in our neighborhoods, and in the eyes of the people we’re trying to help.    The people I meet on the street are often in the grip of

My administration is taking a major step to tackle our police and sheriff staffing crisis and make San Francisco safer. Right now, San Francisco has fewer than 1,500 full-duty police officers—more than 500 below the recommended staffing level. The Sheriff’s Office is short

Our new Neighborhood Street Teams are central to our efforts to improve street conditions. The key change is bringing 9 disparate outreach teams into one unified operating model. The below memo outlines initial learnings from the first 30 days of pilot operations. What’s working

Today, Westside Community Services, the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, and The Salvation Army opened James Baldwin Place, an abstinence-based recovery housing program. Thank you, Westside Community Services for making us a partner in this meaningful project.

We owe our young people an education that prepares them to succeed. The proposed changes to grading at SFUSD would not accomplish that. I have conveyed our view to SFUSD. We are optimistic that there is a better path forward for our kids and their future.
