When a resident of San Francisco is looking for health care, you look in your neighborhood first. What is closest to you . If you come to a Neighborhood Health center or a clinic, you then have access it a system of care in the Community Health network. We are a system of care that was probably based on the Family Practice model, but it was really clear that there are special populations with special needs. The cole street clinic is a youth clinic in the heart of the Haight Ashbury and they target youth. Tom woodell takes care of many of the central City Residents and they have great expertise in providing services for many of the homeless. Potrero hill and Southeast Health centers are Health Centers in those particular communities that are family Health Centers, so they provide health care to patients across the age span. Many of our clients are working poor. They pay their taxes. They may run into a rough patch now and then and what were able to provide is a bridge towards getting th

Okay. I am nicole, the director of the Mayors Office on disability. Thank you for inviting me here today. What i want to do is talk for a minute what our charge is and how we Work Together with s. F. M. T. A. There is a lot that we are focused on that is very positive and i dont want to move those thoughts but i want to take time to make you aware of some of the things we are also hearing and you will hear duplication from dianes comments. I think it is important that we are hearing from the same communities. I wanted to highlight some of those things. First of all, the charge of the Mayors Office on disability specifically is as the citys overall americans with disability act coordinator on behalf of the city.

They go to the office so they can acquire the paratransit card to get reduced tax fee. I think that paratransit needs looked into, it needs to be on time. It means to be more thoughtful about the patients. In an emergency you can book within less than 24 hours if you are going to your healthcare provider. I think the paratransit card should be able to load it online versus going to an office somewhere. You are saying and it struck me and tell me if this is wrong. The cash fare is 3 with the clipper card it is 2. 50, is that right . So i wil
