Network of Service Providers in San Francisco, of course, elizabeth from aws, we hear these stories everyday in terms of there is a need for emergency shelter, but certainly the funds to supplement the legal issues, the legal support, that many of our clients face as an obstacle to leaving an abusive relationship are appreciated and at women, inc.

Take a minute to encourage you to please approve all the supplemental programming. We are a web of services ranging from the District Attorneys efforts down through the civil courts or up through the civil courts depending how you rate your civil courts. With the Legal Services specifically, i just wanted to legality you know that the funding that would come to us to volunteer Legal Services program would fund legal representation for mono lingual women who are victims of [tkroeufpls ].

Those show up in court. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon a anna flores the codirector of muhas. So we wanted to touch a little bit on the decline or the decrease of calls to the police to Domestic Violence because a lot of it due to the Political Climate that is happening. We know when a woman is afraid to call the police, it increases the level of violence in the home and a lot of this is due because of the policy of secure communities where women are afraid to call the police, but luckily we have been able to work directly with the d.

And finally we would like to thank the other organizations that we work with that help us provide Legal Services directly to the women that we work with. Thank you. Thank you, before i call the next speaker i have a few other cards, if you want to line up. [ reading speakers names ] next speaker, in any order
