On their education as well. Supervisor norman yee okay. Any questions . Seeing none, thank you. Next applicant is winnie yu. Good afternoon, board of supervisors, thank you for the opportunity to speak before you and your consideration for the Work Force Committee advisory committee. I have been working as a Center Manager for one of the neighborhood Access Points formally one stop Career Centers . San francisco since july 2010 and have seen thousands of visitors looking for work. Our approach has been looking at the strengths of many of the job seekers to marketing skills to employers and looking for opportunities to do the right matching. So my voice that i would lend is my experience in operating a one stop center, now neighborhood Access Points in San Francisco but also working with job seekers who really have skills gaps in their resumes and being able to work with them and market their skills and strengths to employers. There is a low Unemployment Rate according to the edd report
The presentation. I have to say that its one of those things whenever you have more applicants than you have vacancies that you ask which ever one doesnt get the appointment today or the recommendation today to please continue to be involved because the thing with these bodies you have a lot of busy people and schedules change and personal circumstances change so vacancies come up. I see it as more of a long term. My hope is that at some point both ms. Wong and mr. Fountain would be able to serve on this body. That said, based on the presentation today and the experience, im inclined to move forward mr. Fountain at this point, but again thats not anything against ms. Wong because i think she has a great deal of experience and a lot of passion and expertise that she brings. Supervisor norman yee thank you. I also would support your motion to reappoint mr. Book ter and ms. Yu. It boils down to two candidates. I have had the opportunity to listen to ms. Wong another time when she applied.
Agencies to do so. Like the department of building inspection, department of public health, Adult Protection Services and the likes. Sometimes we have to go to their hotels and and try to solve the problem there. Usually we can get away with writing a letter or making a phone call. Sometimes we have to work with these people four or five weeks at a time to get the problem solved. I often go to my supervisors and say this is a situation i have and can you help me come up with a solution. We always try to get the solution. There have been numerous times that i have helped other peer counselors as well to come up with solution to get the problem solved. I think i would be good for this position because i do have experience in working with the sro tennants. Also i was on the campaigns for the grab bars to be installed in all the hotels and in the campaign for the elderly and disabled people several times. I believe i would be the right person for this position. Thank you. Supervisor norman

There is a low Unemployment Rate according to the edd report, 4. 6 percent. However the remaining are the hardest to employee. We would need to really utilize strategies and skill building and training to ensure that they are not left out while the rest of the more higher skilled workers are now employed.
