on tonight. i hope you like it. we're. this was a passion project. we'll to bypass airport security checkpoints will break down the debate over this proposed legislation. >> also, we continue this afternoon to honor san francisco icon reverend cecil williams of glide. former mayor willie brown will be here to discuss williams lasting legacy from ktvu. >> fox two news this is the four. he was the legendary leader of glide in san francisco, known around the bay area and really around the world for offering a helping hand to those living on the margins. >> reverend cecil williams died at the age of 94, but his spirit of generosity will live on thanks to his decades of service. governor newsom among those paying tribute, he said in

a statement, quote, reverend williams and his congregation offered refuge and support to all who entered their doors, their tireless work to empower marginalized members of the community put them at the forefront of key social justice and human rights issues, driving positive change. >> williams, of course, best known for his stewardship of the tenderloin church, he and his late wife, janice mirikitani, helped to reshape glide with an emphasis on social services and activism. good afternoon everyone. welcome to the four. i'm alex savage and i'm heather holmes. >> he was a beloved social activist and a fiee supporter of civil rights. former house speaker nancy pelosi saying that reverend williams was a clarion voice for love and justice, whether fighting against racism, addressing poverty and addiction and so much more. >> east bay congresswoman barbara lee said, quote, the reverend changed the lives of millions through radical love, support, inclusivity and a commitment to service to the

most marginalized. >> and san francisco mayor london breed said reverend cecil williams was the conscience of our san francisco community. all right. >> for more on reverend williams legacy here, we want to bring in marvin white, who is glide's minister of celebration. marvin thank you so much for the time you've had a day now here to sort of reflect on this tremendous loss for the glide community and for the broader community. talk about what reverend williams meant to you and what you think he meant to san francisco. >> oh, my goodness, to me, he he showed what was possible from anyone, from any beginning place that if you could just if you could use your life in service of the community, then everything is of value about you . and what he taught us is that we need to get free from whatever is holding us back from from stepping into our highest purpose and vision of ourselves.

and as someone who came from san angelo, texas, with a mental breakdown, by age 12, coming from poverty, all the things that are supposed to break you actually became his ministry. imagine if we could all go back to the things that harmed us and hurt us, and understand that's actually the place where our lives begin of service in this community. so he really taught me that no matter where you are, you are a value and of service. and for this community, while all it's a loss, i think because cecil williams, the right reverend, was so brilliant, it's an opportunity for us to lead. you know, he didn't leave us without a blueprint or a plan. he is saying, now it's your time to step in. and i'm very clear that there are many of us who are ready because of him to step into this role. >> yeah. marvin cecil williams really reshaped this congregation. how do you believe

that he was able to attract so many people and get so much support for those really important causes? >> it's a combination of being eye level with those who are most marginalized. and and eye level with those with the most privilege, and bringing them eye level to each other. so when you're in glide memorial church, you don't know if you're sitting next to a billionaire or someone who is on their last supper, you know? and his gift was the ability to bring people together through prayer, through music, through art, through culture, through mutual understanding, through the understanding that we're all in recovery from something. so he was able to democratize spirit and bring us all together and raise our voices together through music, through activism and through art as well. and that's his genius is the ability to bring folks together. so we're all in recovery together. >> obviously, we know that reverend williams was a mentor to you. can i ask what what do

you think as you look back on it, what were some of the most important lessons that he taught you that that are going to guide you as you move forward here and guide the glide community into the future? >> yeah, i think that we he spread the he opened the door so wide for so many communities, for black folks, for poor folks, for migrant farm workers, for poets, for women, for lgbtq folks, for folks in crack addiction disorders, for folks with aids, for gay folks who want to get married. he opened the door so wide that it's easy for us to walk in and easy for us to leave the door open, knowing that there is someone else who we haven't reached yet, who's going to be coming next. so he taught me to make sure that the why the doors of god are as wide open as possible, and the welcome as extravagant

as possible. yeah. >> and marvin, he was also a risk taker, but he was he was willing to take a stand on some really at the time, some unpopular ideas. >> yeah. and that is also, you know, what we've learned that you really do have to have something that you will lay your life on the line for. and that could be your, your physical life, but that also is your career life as well, your reputation life when you're on the side of right and righteousness, you can make those choices because all you can do is win. and even if you fail at those things, you have brought attention, you know, to that matter. and that's what he did. he put his life on the line. and people know that when he was marching and advocating, it wasn't just for the sake of publicity. he he was doing it for people. he activated every part of himself, even as a charismatic figure. he did that to bring resources to glide. so

yes, there are photos of him with all kinds of celebrity, but i am almost sure that those celebrities wrote a check. you know, and fed a thousand people, right? you know, and so that was his gift and what he gave to this community. >> finally, here, as we start to wrap up, marvin, you know, obviously, we know that glide was was an institution recognized, of course, here in san francisco and in the bay area. but but also around the world. and with that being said, i would love to know some of the remembrances that and messages you're receiving from people who had some connection to glide and what what are some of the most meaningful messages of support that you've been receiving since the death of reverend williams? >> the range of responses from from the he saved my life and that's that's literal that there was an opportunity to come into a recovery program to get up off the side of the street and walk in to have a meal, and then

realize once your stomach was full, that maybe there's another step you can take. there are stories of people fresh out of incarceration who made glide their first stop and volunteered and ended up working here for 20 years. there's story after story of women who left domestic violence situations and became self-advocating to story and story and story again about people who got their life back through coming to glide and being in contact with the right reverend cecil williams. and he saw you. that's the thing. everyone says he saw me. >> yeah. there you go. he opened, he opened the door wide. >> i love that metaphor. yeah. >> thank you so much marvin. for, for taking the time this afternoon. we know that that all of you there at glide are going to, to keep cecil williams in your hearts and also carry on his incredible mission. so thank you again. appreciate it. we appreciate your prayers. well, sticking with san francisco's tenderloin and desperate to see change in that neighborhood, mayor london breed is now out

with a new plan. she's hoping a business curfew will potentially cut down on illegal activity in that area. our christian captain live now for us in the city with more on the mayor's new proposal, christian. >> yeah, the move, mayor on the part of the mayor to help disrupt those open air drug markets, particularly overnight and into the early morning hours. now, when it comes to street conditions in the tenderloin, san francisco police say that they've made a lot of progress, particularly during the daylight hours, with more than 3000 arrests and hundreds of pounds of narcotics seized in less than a year. but when night falls, police say they still have a lot of work to do, and that activity often centers around businesses that operate overnight. now, the mayor's office is introducing new legislation that would close businesses that sell prepackaged food or tobacco products from midnight to 5 a.m, the mayor's office says the idea has a lot of grassroots support from residents and neighbors and businesses in the area that support the idea. some restaurants tell us that they

say that the late night businesses are, in effect, a hub for illicit illicit activities, but businesses that do operate around the clock say that they have to work late into the night to make ends meet. they also say that they're providing food and sundries for a community that really needs those services. now, if this new legislation passes the new hours would not be enforced by san francisco police other than warnings, any businesses that violate those proposed new hours would wind up being fined up to $1,000 by san francisco's department of health. police, though, say that they would act as the eyes and ears in the neighborhood, patrolling to see if there are any businesses that are in violation of those new hours. again, that is, if the measure passes. for now, we're live in san francisco. christian captain ktvu, fox two news okay, so christian, obviously the mayor just out with this new idea. >> any sense if there is enough support for it to get approved at this point, it's too hard to

say. >> it's just in the process of being unveiled. i think that the supervisors are going to want to have to take a look at it to see what's actually in the legislation before they decide one way or the other. >> yeah, yeah, that makes sense. christian captain, live for us at city hall in san francisco. christian. thank you. >> okay. it is a popular program that allows a lot of air travelers to bypass security checkpoints. >> we'll tell you why. some california lawmakers are now pushing a bill to ban third party companies, like clear from operating at airports. >> and in barry weather. a lot of cloud cover and a major cool down today kind of settling in. still lots of clouds looking out towards san francisco bay. we could be adding some shower chances to the forecast this week, and we'll h e the updat

out the front door today and this afternoon as we take a live look across san francisco. and

that's where i was. mark and boy, it was much cooler and much cloudier today. >> yeah that's right heather, nothing gradual with this. the weather change a significant drop off in those numbers for today. and this pattern is going to stick around over the next several days for wednesday, thursday and into friday. just take a look at yesterday. as you can recall such a warm day in some neighborhoods, 70s and some 80s and not just a little bit of a drop off in those numbers quite a bit. santa rosa about 20 degrees cooler compared to yesterday. concord from 83 to 64 degrees in san jose 83 to 66. so yeah, the significant cooldown is here. a big pattern change. look at all those lightning strikes up to our north out toward portions of the sierra up in northern california. as we come in closer to the bay area, there's that low cloud deck, stubborn. so some areas not clearing at all. mostly cloudy skies. and we'll take a closer look at the satellite. we still have some leftover clouds in portions of the east bay as well, so we're going to hold on to the cloud cover for tonight and into tomorrow morning. this is the temperature change compared to this time yesterday.

and a lot of minus signs in front of these numbers indicating that cool down out there as we check out some of the current numbers, you can see the cool spots in the upper 50s for half moon bay and san francisco. lots of 60s for concord and in livermore and the winds have been a factor as well. take a look at the current wind reports out there. you can see oakland airport winds at about 15 miles an hour sfo gusting to 30 miles an hour. in san jose, winds gusting at 21 miles an hour. here's our live camera this afternoon. looking out over the bay. still some overcast out there and there's the chance we could have. i know i encounter a little bit of some drizzle this morning, so there's a chance we could have some drizzle tomorrow morning as well. upper 40s to the to the lower 50s. solid cloud cover and then into the afternoon hours. we're expecting partly cloudy skies inland, mostly cloudy skies near the coast and the sun cloud mix right around the bay so it won't be complete. clearing and highs tomorrow will be in the upper 50s to the upper 60s for your wednesday afternoon. now, eventually there's another system that wants to move into the area, and

we could be talking about a shower chance back in back in the picture. in fact, you can see this area of low pressure which has been keeping us on the cool side. it's going to approach our coastline clouds and drizzle for tomorrow. but coming up, we're going to talk about this system moving in from the north. this will bring in maybe some shower chances later in the day, thursday and into friday. we'll talk more about this with your full update coming up in just a little bit. >> all right. we'll see you in a bit mark. thank you. a hearing was held at the state capitol in sacramento today, as lawmakers consider legislation that would affect how air travelers make their way through security checkpoints. >> okay, so this law would require companies such as clear to either set up and pay for their own dedicated tsa staff security lanes, or be banned from california airports. ktvu tom vacar joining us now live from oakland international airport. >> it's one of nine california airports where clear service is available. tom, how would this work? >> well, here's what you have to understand. cutting in line has never really been socially acceptable, but if you can afford it and you're willing to

do it, it is quite tolerable. here's what i mean. for those willing to pay $189 a year, especially during busy travel periods, it can make an airport check in a relative breeze. but one senator says this what your membership does, is it gives you the right to cut the line. >> do we want all of us taxpayers who paid for a public asset like tsa to have unequal access? >> now clear charges members $189 a year to verify passengers identities at airports, allowing them to go through the checkpoints. now, the service is found at 55 airports nationwide, as well as dozens of sports stadiums and other venues. this is what oakland travelers we met today said about the program. i do a lot of traveling in the summer, and my team has to come with me. >> photographer, manager and if we're all late for the flight or if we all need to be moving, you

know, at a faster pace, it's cool to have that access. >> i think for those kind of afford it, it would be a nice luxury. but not everybody can afford that. >> i might feel different about it if i was at a private shopping mall or something like that, but here it just doesn't feel right to me. >> now, if clure doesn't fix this, then senator wants to clear banned from all nine california airports that it serves, but it would need to pass a bill and then have the governor sign it, which is questionable at this point in time. back to you. >> and, tom, what exactly would would a fix look like for clear what are lawmakers expecting? >> well, to do pretty much what delta airlines is already doing with a delta one service down at los angeles international airports. they pay for their own tsa security line. and people with delta who are in that program can go through that security line as opposed to the rest of the security lines. that's what they want to have happen with clear, which would

then have its own security lines and be able to do that again, mind you, tsa security lines, to make sure that all of the rules are followed. yeah okay. >> we will wait and see what clear does if they do anything. tom vacar. thank you. >> up next here on the four this afternoon. it's a local nonprofit that is on a mission to combat climate change and promote a healthier planet. we have the details on this giving day

diversity. coming up we mark lesbian. visibility week by talking with carolyn wysinger, a bay area politician and true trailblazer and carolyn s

power of sisterhood. now this week originally began in los angeles back in 1990. it was celebrated until 1992. it then disappeared for a bit, making a comeback in 2008 as international visibility day and

has been a fully fledged week now since 2020. joining me now live to talk about the week and the issues faced by lesbians is carolyn wysinger, mayor pro tem of el cerrito. always a pleasure to see you. carolyn can you explain the importance of this week to highlight women like yourself who might have felt invisible in the past? >> it's very important. and you know, someone was asking me just yesterday about how things have changed from the time that i came up here in the bay area, an area that has obviously san francisco pride and san francisco pride has been here in san francisco since about 1970. i came up here in the bay area in the 90s, and still lesbians weren't as visible as they are now, and it's all due in part to things like lesbian visibility week in conjunction with organizations like san francisco pride. every time that we have the opportunity to let people see us, hear us and understand the issues of our community is something that to celebrate but also to recognize those members who have done things in our

community and can continue to do those things. >> well, let's talk about someone doing things in their community, and that is you. i mean, you have a unique perspective of including in politics. i mean, you're really working to achieve a more inclusive political landscape. >> well, yes, i mean, it's very important we are so happy that we are here in a place like the bay area. we have so many allies in elected positions, but, you know, we're in a place where we have done things like lesbian visibility week for so long. we have so many people, so many lesbians who are leading in our communities. it is time to take every opportunity that we can to be the actual leaders at the table. so it's great to have allies who are working on our behalf. but now is the time for us to step up and be those leaders of our own communities. >> yeah, and while this is certainly a time to reflect on the progress, you know, challenges remain, what are some of the obstacles that the lesbian community continues to face today? >> i mean, some of the obstacles are not too different than the ones that were faced when lesbian visibility week was started. i mean, we're still

facing the same type of stereotypes. and, you know, as, as a lesbian, you face the homophobia as well as the misogyny of being a woman in the community of myself, being a masculine of center woman, being a black queer woman. you still face all of those same intersectional issues and stereotypes wrapped into one identity. so you're still fighting those same battles. >> yeah, you have had such an impact on san francisco pride, which, of course is coming up in june with billy porter named as both the celebrity grand marshal and also the headliner. i mean, this year is going to be amazing. >> well, you know, it's so interesting as san francisco pride. now, i am a board member, but some in the ktvu community may remember myself as the three terme board president of san francisco pride, and i was actually only the third, black president of the organization. and it's just so amazing. just in the time when i started on the on the board back in 2018 to now in 2024, and the things that

we've traversed and to have a black, queer, amazing, dynamic celebrity grand marshal like billy porter, i couldn't be any happier. and i get to do without being in charge. so, you know, that makes it even. >> yeah, you get to maybe enjoy a little bit more. i get to sit back right. okay. so carolyn, though, talking about your role at el cerrito, i mean, what do you hope? you know, this position sort of does for, for not only you and the lesbian community, but really the community as a whole? >> you know, i was talking to some of my brothers. i'm a member of sigma omega phi fraternity incorporated, which is a lesbian identified greek organization, and they were telling me, just as masculine centered women how seeing me as an elected official has inspired them to get involved in politics, whether it's running for office, whether it's learning more about being a policy maker, whether it's learning about how to support policy makers, what are the what are the deep core issues that are affecting our community, besides the surface level things that we see every day, how do

they affect those changes? and, you know, i've been getting that ever since the first time i ran for office, which was in 2020. unfortunately i wasn't successful, but so many young queer people came up to me and said they'd never seen a woman who looked like them with short hair. they would see me, you know, in wearing suits and on billboards and all those things. and they had never seen that before. so if i can never do anything else, just showing other queer folks that no matter what you look like, no matter what your identity is, your voice is needed. in our community. you are a voice in this world and you deserve to be heard. >> yeah, representation. it indeed matters. carolyn. really appreciate it and looking forward to pride month coming up in june. >> thank you so much. i look forward to it as well. yeah. have a good one. thank you. you too. bye bye. >> all right. up next on the for this afternoon we're taking a closer look at the resources and health care services available for older transgender adults. coming up we'll look at how the center for elders independence is supporting this population. plus we will have one local

seniors inspiring story of transition. >> and in weather, the cooldown has arrived. here's our live camera looking out towards san francisco. the distance solid cloud cover. we're going to cloud things up once again overnight, and maybe some shower chan s later in the

lasting legacy and to talk more about that, we are fortunate to be joined this afternoon by former san francisco mayor willie brown. mr. mayor, we always appreciate the time. i know you've had a little bit of time yourself to process the loss of your dear friend, reverend williams. we have been talking so much about his spirit of compassion. that's what he was known for. i'm curious to get your sense about where that came from. why do you believe reverend williams was was so committed to caring for those who were less fortunate? >> well, you know, cecil was one of those very rare black men in america. he actually was a person who went to college to become really a sufficient endowed preacher. he knew what he was about, etc, and then, of course, he recognized that in that capacity he had a huge voice that may very well be

decisive on behalf of equality for all people. and he came to san francisco from a town not too distant from where i lived in mineola. and he could practice that. and so in 1963 or 64, when he took over glide in the tenderloin, that was not black, that was just a collection of people who really needed some attention in a fabulous city. and they got it from cecil williams. >> mr. mayor, can we talk for a moment about those church services? because they were spirited. they were celebratory. i mean, is that how you believe he was able to attract such a diverse group of parishioners? >> well, cecil, i must say, and i know i'll be criticized for it, but cecil was an entertaining preacher. he really did have a means by which everybody who showed up on sunday morning got involved in

the church, not from saying, lord, please save me. but cecil gave them the opportunity to say, lord, i'm here to serve. and it was wonderful to have somebody do that. >> yeah, he was something special. you know, obviously, mr. mayor, a huge part of his legacy is, is the social services aspect of what was happening at glide here. and you look no further than the free meals program there that started back in 1980. we're talking about feeding hot meals, three meals a day to thousands of people in need in that community. how much of a difference when you look back at it, can you sort of put into context how much of a difference that program and the other outreach programs have made for people in san francisco? >> well, there have been a number of organizations all over this country that had been about

offering free meals to people. cecil didn't just offer free meals. so sill knew exactly how to have people come to cecil's chapel and proceed to enjoy themselves. and in some cases, cecil was actually doing the serving, and cecil did the kind of serving of food he would like to eat at became dramatically different. and believe me, i suspect it established for all of the nation how you do free food to people who need it. and that's incredible. >> yeah, it certainly is. but these programs would not be successful if he was not such a prolific fundraiser. i mean, he was able to get support from every big celebrity and influencer, and that's important when you want to keep programs like this running. >> well, cecil's method of doing

what he was doing made it impossible edible for anybody to turn him down, no matter how rich they were or how poor they were, because when they would participate in what cecil was about, it really was, was the incredible generosity of a human being who did so without questioning whether or not you understood what the #### was occurring. cecil did that, and it was fun because cecil also made it incredibly entertaining to be a part of that 3000 or more meals a day is what cecil did three meals a day is what cecil did. all kinds of things associated with those meals is what cecil was about. simultaneously, he was extended the opportunity for people to interact, whether they were old,

young, rich, poor, gay, straight, gender, transgender. cecil did it. and believe me, it became the standard by which nonprofit organizations wanted to be helpful, could do. >> yeah, it didn't matter who you were. he was going to lend you a helping hand. finally, mayor, as we begin to wrap up here, we're sort of, you know, wrapping our heads around what what the death of cecil williams means. and i want to get your thoughts about where you believe glide goes from here, sort of carrying his spirit with the organization moving forward. >> cecil left glide in great shape. the people that signed on with cecil signed on with cecil. they adopted the cecil mode, and i can assure you that glide will be glide with cecil gordon, even

though he's gone, he's still he's still guiding. >> that's the important part. mr. mayor, always a pleasure to talk with you. thanks so much for taking the time to reflect on this. all right. >> thank you for the opportunity, cecil williams. >> yeah, absolutely. >> all right. take care, mr. mayor. >> yeah. thank you. okay getting a little bit of weather whiplash here, mark, because yesterday was so nice today, not so nice as we take a look at the oakland estuary. >> that's right. a sudden shift in the temperatures for today. lots of clouds and may have encountered maybe some drizzle out there. it might be calling it light rain as well. so yeah, some some moisture moving in the cooler air is going to stick around over the next several days. so just to go back in time a little bit on sunday and into monday, we had temperatures in the 70s and the 80s, but a sharp drop off in those numbers today and no major warm ups in sight. in fact, temperatures will continue to cool off as we head toward wednesday, thursday and into friday. and look at this. we're showing you the rainfall forecast model, at least in the

short tum tomorrow morning. we could have some drizzle out there. and then there's a chance of a shower as we head into thursday night and into friday morning, and maybe some sierra snowfall for the higher elevations, especially up above 7000 or 8000ft. so it's not going to be a clear, sunny, warm forecast. not just yet. now, tomorrow for your wednesday, some clouds and some drizzle, and then partly to mostly cloudy skies into the afternoon hours 7 a.m. temperatures close to 50 degrees by the afternoon hours. no more 80s not even some 70s, maybe close to 70 degrees, but most areas will be in the upper 50s to the upper 60s. here's a satellite and the radar. look at all this thunderstorm activity up to our north. as you can see right around redding for portions of the northern sierra. and there's a chance we'll have to keep an eye on this thunderstorm activity that could approach the bay area. but the main activity, the main changes will be more clouds and that shower chance as well. right now, here's the satellite. lots of overcast near the coastline out toward half moon bay, out toward pacifica and san francisco, and the clouds still some patches right around the

kiss on transgender youth and the support they're receiving. but there are also many older adults who transition later in life. >> you've got to try a little kindness. >> just show a little kindness. >> just shine your light for everyone to see.

>> that is 66 year old buddy wolf doing his rendition of the glen campbell classic try a little kindness. sounds good. wolf is a client at the east bay center for elders independence, and five years ago, he told the caregivers that he wanted to transition from female to male, and he'd wanted to as long as he could remember. the center began providing gender affirming care with hormones and other therapies, allowing wolf to become his true self, and he is part of a growing population of transgender adults who are over the age of 65, and this group often faces some profound challenges in accessing care. and for more on some of those challenges, we are joined here in studio by buddy wolf and maria zamora, who is the ceo of the center for elders independence. thank you so much for both taking the time today to talk about a really important issue. buddy you sound good in that video. did you know you were going to make your singing debut here? >> no, i had no i had no idea. >> we really appreciate you

coming in to share your story. what what inspired you to begin your transition journey? when i was either 5 or 6, i'm not sure my mother tells the story, i never knew who santa claus was. i'm visually impaired, so i had no idea who santa claus was. and my mother took me to see santa claus, and she tells the story. when i was put on santa's lap, he asked me what i wanted. i told him i wanted to be a cowboy . well, forget the cow part. you know? and my mother said that. she kind of nodded and smiled at santa claus and that for that christmas i got my cowboy boots, my jeans, my vest, my shirt, my cowboy hat. i was all decked out and was one happy boy. i was very lucky. through my life because my mother knew and understood. we didn't have a name for anything, right? but my mother always understood and she allowed me and encouraged me to

be myself. and i was raised to be fiercely independent. and so i've taken care of myself as far as i can. and but i think the biggest trouble that i had after i got to the center, met up with my social worker and she said, well, you know, you can start your transition at any time. and i said, well, what do i do? and she said, talk to the clinic. so i went in and i talked to the clinic and i'm like, you know, okay, cool. how do i do this? and do i have to self inject? and they're like, no, we'll do that for you. and i was like, hallelujah! because i couldn't get a clinic to do that. and being visually impaired, i can't see to draw up, you know, i mean yeah, because it's just such a minuscule amount. you needed additional support. yes, exactly. and so is this something that would have been possible for you to transition without the support of the caregivers at the center for elders? >> no, not at all, not at all,

when i met with christina, who was a nurse practitioner at our clinic, and she gave me the rundown on, you know, how everything would happen and what would happen to me. and, you know, going through the process of transitioning and, because i started therapy immediately when i got there, because i was so depressed and i it's like the first 60 years of my life felt like i was an imposter, you know, i felt like i was always trying to be something that i wanted to be. and now i don't feel like an imposter anymore. in fact, june 12th, i'll be having my surgery, so it's like, i can't imagine that feeling any more whole than i do, but it's like, that's wonderful. yeah, it's fantastic. and no one else. it's like medicare and medi-cal.

you know, a lot of the clinics, clinics and stuff. don't take it . so joining the center is like, they're paying for my surgery, my transportation, my care, the pre-op post-op, you know. right. they take care of everything. yeah. >> and there are let's talk about some of the challenges that that older adults who are transitioning are facing in the health care system. maria, i want to put up a stat here. so we have some perspective on on what we're talking about. 1.3 million transgender adults here in the u.s. and 171,000 of them are over the age of 65. we know that this month, april, is national minority health month. and i want you to talk about how important it is to improve and address some of the health disparities that we see for marginalized communities. >> it's vitally important, you know, when we think about the delivery of health care in our country today, there are such large swaths of individuals who are just left behind by the

health care system. they fall through the cracks, or they've never even really had access to the type of care and services that they need. and so you do hear the terms health care, equity often these days. but really this model that we operate, the pace model of care programs of all inclusive care for the elderly, it was founded in with the focus on health equity. it was really to find and serve underserved populations of older adults and that's what we do every day. but but you see stories like buddy's that that statistic 171,000, i think you said, yeah, that's today we know that this the older adult population is growing exponentially in the next 20 years. so there will be far more older adults that will require our services so that they can age with dignity. >> all right. we're almost out of time here, buddy. but what what would you say to another person, another older adult who, who feels like they maybe aren't their, their true self?

>> the best thing that i can come up with that i've thought about for the last seven years that i've been a part of this program, is anyone who who is a part of this community, no matter where what part of the lgbtq plus you are in, if you feel lonely, you're a senior, come to our program. it's all inclusive. we take, you know, they take very good care of me and if you come to the program and you want to meet me, i'll go to wherever you are and i'll be there, and i will help you walk through whatever you need to, because that's what's most important is not feeling alone. and i'm sure that the numbers are even higher than that. sure, as a senior, i think fear beats me back a lot of the times. and you know, who's to say? you know, i'm hoping that that society changes because with the laws that they're trying to overturn, you know, it's getting

harder and harder to find, surgeons who do this right. you know, still to this day, and government is really trying to change everything. >> again, i'm really happy for you. i'm glad that you you have found happiness here. really appreciate you coming in, buddy. and, maria, thank you for the time to talk about this. really important issue. >> thank
