Placement program and also working in the ins and outs, supervisor breed, im sure you know in the cbo union, i wear a lot of hats and picked up a lot of experience in Workforce Development. One thing i can say about Workforce Development is the beauty that San Francisco has with the diversity of organizations serving all of San Francisco. I also had the privilege of working with the Redevelopment Agency in building Affordable Housing across the street from somac, the west brook plaza which is Affordable Housing location run by mercy housing that provides a dignity for folks and i believe this is one of the issues im extremely passionate about. I believe that san franciscans do need affordable options in housing, especially the population that this committee would serve, and then the Economic Development piece, i was fortunate working in mission hiring haul to experience the redevelopment buildout of the 6th street and the buildout of the Small Businesses and i think that the Economic D
Information thats being transferred from nonprofit to our city through the grant process and i think theres plenty of opportunity to make it better.

Ive known fei for over 30 years, i just want to share with you an earlier experience that shows her grit and determination.

Hello, supervisors, thank you for your consideration for my appointment to district 6 representatives to supervisor jane kim as a Child Care Provider, my name is deepa mehta, i work for family youth and Child Care Center as an after school coordinator, most of my experience has been in the after school field and the ece field which is Early Childhood education, ive been working in the Tenderloin Community for three years now, in addition to working at glide, im in the tenderloin safe pathway commission, safe passage provides safe blocks to 400 youth daily for the after school hours. I think i would be a good candidate for the Child Care Council because i would bring diverse toy the the youth and bring the after School Perspective to the group, and theres not as much representation from the after school field on cpac, so i feel i would bring that perspective. Thank you again for your consideration. Okay. Have you ever attended cpac or do you know what they do . Yes, im currently attendi
And i am now the president of its board of directors, i was on the commission of the agency in the early 1980s and early 1990s and [inaudible] which ive been stuck for about three decades prior to my [inaudible] and a great advocate, strong advocate for family and children uses on that block. I was on the de young board of trustees and helped them with the building of the new De Young Museum in golden gate park, i helped the port of San Francisco after more of a decade on the moratorium of building with the waterfront Land Use Plan and as a director of real estate helped to formulate the strategy.
