do you stand by your word to support the students, and educators, who are most at risk because of the choices you make? thank you. >> good morning. i'm kelley cutler. i'm a human rights organizer with the coalition on homeless, and you're here with the our city, our home commission, and we are here asking to support the our city, our home coalition to prioritize homeless housing for our neighbors. when i heard you read my name first, i was like oh, i wanted to get talking points from my colleagues. i've had experience with homeless and doing outreach and seeing folks out on the street, and the youth out on the street. and i'm seeing still -- i continue to see youth that i worked with over 15 years ago that are no longer youth, and they're still out on the street because we failed them. so really asking you to be investing in our youth and to break the cycle because if we're not investing in -- the same thing is going to continue happening. and that's about it. thank you. >> supervisor fewer: thank you very much. let me call a couple of more names. reynaldo dia. asea chapelle?
