Lets go to joy next. Good morning everyone, my name is joy jackson morgan. Im the executive director. Im a unicorn in the city, a San Francisco native. During this time third street has really focused on our young people in addressing the needs that youth have been coming up with, primarily with housing. That has been a huge issue for our young people and food has also been an issue. Weve gone from having our food pantry to having food delivery for our youth and their families. Were currently serving about 50 youth and families per week. Were also trying to keep our young people engaged. This has been a hard time for them adjusting to Distance Learning and not having the certain outlets that theyre accustomed to. So we continued our Youth Development program. We have been keeping our young people engaged, and active, and connected to their peer groups. This is not the norm for any of us. We are use to be being able to go outside and going where we want and now were confined to zoom or
A supporter of joe biden. Caller thank you for taking my call. I am four things here. I am an africanamerican woman. Im a veteran. I live in the suburbs. And i have a 22yearold son. I am most afraid that my 22yearold son cant go to walmart to get a gallon of milk and bread without being stopped by the police and harassed. That is what i most frightened of. Donald trump is chaotic. He did nothing but cause chaos and confusion this entire 3. 5, going on four years. He doesnt recognize my race of people. So, it is his america. I dont feel safe in his america. Donald trump sits in that office. He is president. On his watch,on not joe bidens watch. The reason they are protesting we all have to keep remembering and no one is for destroying anyones business. No one is for destroying any neighborhoods. But i am for peaceful protests. And biden has made that very clear. But with donald trump, he wants to act tough and try to frighten people. I live in suburbia. Nowadays, that has become a code
Will agree that we want to build on that. But i do recall i want and of the next few days i would like a better understanding of how the crisis team fits into what we are already doin doing . This is similarly an effort rely on expanding ems6. I want to understand how that has grown and how those ems16s are used. Also, how the mobile crisis team relates to this and any other, you know, outreach thats happening now because i think supervisor ronen and supervisor hainey and the whole boards intention is for a game changer that really changes the experience for people who are in crisis on the streets and really changes the experience of people in San Francisco who are seeing people in crisis on the street. And the question of whether its to be 24hour, but i think it needs to be at a volume that is great enough that is actually impactful and im a little worried that the increase that happened last year again, its been a weird year, a very weird year. But i know ems6 does great work and i k

And you were thinking about the future of American Cities, you would have seen potentially a very bleak future. That was the time when particularly our urban cores, new york city and los angeles, were in the middle of a bona fide crisis. You had seen years of deindustrialization ravaged the working class of the city and an enormous middleclass flight to other regions entirely. That was very hard on the Fiscal Foundation of the cities and the civic life of those cities. You saw the tremendous renaissance over the subsequent decades. That renaissance was not even. You did not see it in every single American City but you did see it in a handful of cities that had a renaissance in governance. The Manhattan Institute was deeply involved in an urban renaissance but one thing we have been arguing for some years is that, wait a second, everyone. We are in a period of relative health. Many majoromeback of American Cities but lets not take this for granted. Lets look at some of those frailties a
