Speaker. Public speaker gabriel with the department of disability. I want to applaud the steps that San Francisco is taking. As others have alluded to San Francisco is the leader in this effort and i know others will try to replicate what you do. Just a couple of other key success. Clear measurable high level goes that are trackable so everyone in the city and county can rally around them. 1 person designated to lead this effort and i would echo the point that making sure that person has the authority to get what needs to be don orsillo and finally making sure the person who is designated within hr to sphere head this has competencies to do job development. In my experience, its a fairly rare skill set and not everyone can do it well. There are some members in your Advisory Committee who knows that very well and hopefully they are focused on the what competencity is for that purpose. Part of our role is to gather best practices from around the state and the country. If anything we can do to support your effort, let us know. Mr. Rog an, is the state Council Representative different people from all regions in the state or how is . Yes, im the manager of our Bay Area Office and we have 5 counties but we are throughout the state. Is there an oversight body and the Staff Department . It is a Staff Department and there is a council that sits in sacramento and oversees our work. And that effort is appointed by a council . Yes. Thank you. Next speaker. Public speaker good afternoon thank you for the opportunity to come before you today. My name is denise senhaux. I want to thank you for being with us to celebrate the 25th anniversary of ada history and thank you for your resolution in Going Forward and making july ada month. Thank you very much for that support. I pretty much wanted to talk to you about something that is close to my heart in the Mayors Disability Council heart is around Employment Opportunities and i want to speak to you not only as a Council Member but an individual with a disability and a nonapparent one which is ian invisible one. Im fortunate to be engaged in the private sector for 5 years and my employer is accommodating in place in the hiring practices in the interview and i have been able to compete and bid for jobs, not based on my disability, but based on my skill set, my knowledge and my education. I appreciate what the ada has done in giving me an even Playing Field in doing so. So im very proud that im able to not only work for a fortune 500 company and not be given a job in just an entry level position. I have been able to move through that process and as i have mentioned im extremely fortunate. I appreciate you looking at this and myself working for the council and the Advisory Committee. Thank you for your time. Thank you, next speaker. Public speaker hi, im stephanie. I will be very short. I just wanted to echo how important i think that we have one point person who deals with getting people with disabilities into employment. I think what we should really not underestimate is that that needs to be a person who really has a depth of understanding on all kind of disabilities. That is a group of people who are so easily left behind. So i would like the idea of concrete goals and concrete timelines. I think we cant be too ambitious with that. The last point i want to make is i hope we will have a stability with rule 115 that allows us to not exclude best practices that we have seen in other models. Thank you. Thank you very much. Next speaker . Public speaker hi. Im collin from arc San Francisco at the employment department. At arc we support over 700 clients with disabilities. The rule 115 task force along with the Mayors Office on disability, hr and Numerous Community based organizations and founded said rule 115 continues to be misunderstood and under utilized and we do feel that funding a specific recruiter or lease liaison to support and educate the department and be able to help bring candidates from under a talent pool would be very very important. One major thing is utilizing these Community Based organizations as that knowledge base. For instance in the past year, the arc has we helped 161 clients obtain employment. We have 92 retention rate. So the private sector has really caught on to this and we want to see the success in the city and county level as well. We are on the right steps like we said that specific point person will help collecting data, will help as well. We need to have some sort of a baseline so we can set those goals. Otherwise we dont really, its hard to look forward when we dont have those baseline parts of information. But lastly, we are heading in the right direction. I want to thank the Airport Commission for taking the first step in partnering with the arc to continue to work with people with disabilities and head their Internship Program and this is going to create a great pipeline for Civil Service employment. Something like this needs to happen a lot more. Thank you very much for your time. Actually, mr. Sell io are there other departments. I know the California Science Center was mentioned but are there other departments . There is is Public Library and cal academy and there is another one and that is it for right now. Thank you very much. Next speaker. Good afternoon supervisors. Ron for the department of public health. Im the Human Resources director there. I learned about 115. I met an employee hired through 115 and that employee works directly for me and taking on more challenging assignments and the more challenging assignments i give the more they step up to do it. So im an advocate of rule 115. Also on behalf of our department director, Robert Garcia and donna and ed wong and jonathan lions who i have done some work with, Carla Johnson and the others, the members of this group, i think you have a Great Initiative going here and we are more than happy to support it. We have done a lot of rework in our hiring program and there is a lot of opportunities to forward that work. So i look forward to doing that. Thank you very much. Are there any other speakers on this item . Public speaker my name is wendy and im a member of the public. I just wanted to say that i came up with some suggestions that if you could possibly implement quickly. For example, the sf mpa has a muni accessibility Advisory Committee. Meets monthly. It would be nice if this was a stipend position. And i would also like the city to consider that any commission that is held should have some of us on their Commission Also again with a stipend. Some outside contractors, the para transit coordinating council, they meet every other month or six weeks. 6 weeks. People are disabled and use the para transit and again, a stipend position. Some of us have to cobble together various pieces in order to try to survive in San Francisco. It gets harder and harder for us to survive. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Public speaker hi, i really appreciate your efforts supervisor mar in pushing this forward. I think last time you had a hearing we had folks that were partnering with ucsf with and relate that to the need for a point person. We were able to place a point person there, one of our employees at uc sf and we had Great Success with placements there for folks with developmental and intellectual disabilities. They are now making more than their job coaches are because they are at uc sf. We are happy to see that but the hires with large employees with multiple departments that dont necessarily as best as they can to reaching out to Department Heads and meeting with them and talking about the workforce that we have available for you when the expertise that we have in place with people with jobs. Just to continue to advocate these efforts within the task force as well as gathering that information now. Thank you. Thank you as well. Is there any additional Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Thank you very much to everyone for being here. I think a tremendous progress has been made. My thanks to the task force, the Advisory Committee and dhr, the Mayors Office on disability. Im going to recommend that we keep this hearing continue it to the call of the chair so we can have regular updates and my hope is that as the recommendations that people have gin today not only the four that Carla Johnson and others, but many others from the great recommendations from wendy on the stipends and commission and Internship Programs that i know we talked about in previous hearings that are a pathway to hiring to the entry level position expanding that to other ways that we are looking at rule 115 as only one role of the range of opportunities for people. I think its an example of how much value the resources from the community there is in our city and what Great Department staff and departments that we have. So with everyone working together with a more Permanent Task force, i think we can accomplish a great deal more for this city. It was wonderful that for mr. Rog an from the state council that we dont operate in a vacuole and we should be looking at state practice and how others will look to us to expand opportunities and civil rights and not just here but everywhere. I really appreciate the great work and i will again plug the disability festival for september 25th and 26 for californias ada 25 conference coming up. As fiona mentioned, its also about park pride and unity. I think there will be a lot of great awareness as we are moving towards september and this month is Disability Awareness month and with the board of supervisors there is acknowledgment and leadership from the community and thats coming up. With the task force, i will continue with the real real hard work with victor lynn and well continue to work with you and to empower people and look forward to a lot of these great recommendations. With that, supervisor christensen single just a brief comment. I want to thank you for allowing me to leave briefly. I want to thank all of you for this community. I have a colleague and friend that i worked with on the project tunnel who lost his eyesight during surgery and i watched his transition as he continued to find ways to work. I turned to chris in the past for his advice on the topic. So i have certainly recognized firsthand both the struggles and the opportunity that are there icon congratulate all those who are surmounting and thank you all for being here today. Thank you, supervisor christensen, i forgot to mentioned that of the four specific goals well work with department of Human Resources with donna and ed wong on the recommendations coming out of this committee but especially in establishing the process for highering a person. It does seem the task force should be involved in the criteria for hiring someone with experience in the area where they will be doing the recruiting and implementation. Also as they come back from the City Attorney on surveys being done anonymously and voluntarily to be with joanna and others advice as well and how to set realistic measurable hiring goals and some bench marks and timelines as people recommendeded and how we extend the task force so it continues on. Great work, everyone. Thank you very much. So weve moved to continue this to the call of the chair and can we do that without objection. Thank you everyone. Mr. Ever evans please call item no. 2.
