total amount 21.9 million and authorizing any amendments or other modifications to the agreement. do not increase the obligations or lgbts or decrease the benefits to the city. and necessary for the purposes of the agreement. madam chair. >> >> we are supportive housing here. >> i'm dylan snied wert department of homelessness and supportive housing. and wonderful we have slides up. i have buffer a resolution authorize hsh to enter in the second amendment to an upon grant agreement with hamilton families to continue the housing solution rapid rehousing program and a reminder rapid rehousing is a time limited rental that decreases as the tenant

stabilizes and finds housing outside the system. the items that have been before you the last few weeks rapid rehousing tenants live in private market and access supportive service including case management and housing retention service. this amendment was heard and, proved by the homelessness oversight commission on april 4 of 24 and today i want to thank cloaks from hamilton families for joining me here. the resolution would approve the second amendment extending the term by 6 years from june 2024 through 2030 and increase the not to exceed amount by 12 opinion 3 amount for a total of 21.9 million. and a bit about our rapid rehousing portfolio. hsh has over 1700 slots of

respectid rehouse nothing our portfolio. 900 serve families. through this agreement provides rehousing for 35 families and services including housing location and cordination. landlord liaison, subsidy administration and housing focused case management. in year 23 hamilton served 66 house holds. 61% women and 27% black and through the housing solutions rapid rehousing program hamilton budgeted serve 75 familiesanualy. there are 35 the subsidies through this agreement. the remaining it a separate agreement fund through hud funding. the agreement buffer today funds case management and support for

about this agreements begin federal funding is restricted rental assistance. happy to take questions. >> thank you. >> good morning, nick from the bla. item one a resolution approved an amendment to the hsh grant with hamilton families extend its through june 2030 and not to exceed increase. we detailed the budget on page 4 of our report. eighty-four % is funded by the general fundful 9% by hud. emergency solutions grant funding and 6% by prop c. we reviewed the performance of the grant and noted that the program is performing within the requirements of the contract accept this there has been significant under pending on the guarantee in the past several years.

that totalled over 940 thousand dollars the past 3 fiscal years. this year this grant will be under fund by 2 and 500 thousand dollars. that's less than the under spending of prior years and recommend approval of item one. >> thank you. thank you. i do have just a quick questions about the federal grants subsidies. roughly how much for the federal grant subsidies? >> for the agreement i would have to look that up i'm happy to thenned over for the total grant agreement. >> that would be great. help me understand in proportion with in the city funding. establishing, helping 75 families, which is great per year. i appreciate it and continue the support. but in rit i don't how much will

that type of this time service the city on going in prosecute portion to the federal guarantee for subsidies and that gives us an understanding if we were to ever scale up would this mean allow the city to scale up for rental subsidies to that we could respect from the federal government? absolutely. i don't have the total in front of me i can get this for you. i will say that the estimate annual cost for family is about 40 thousand dollars a year, which is in line with other rapid rehousing subsidies. to your question, because we are funding restrictions with federal funding that do emphasize the rental assistance instead of support services if we were to ramp up more slots of subsidies we would look at adding additional case management and support services to the city funds to support an

expansion. >> yea. that's what i'm saying. you know in the ratio of if we were to invest 2 million dollars. in the case management for 75 families per year and how much of the federal rental subsidies the families could receive if it is 40 thousand dollars per year that is substate your name. that is great. i think this if we were to scale up and that our investments that means that help support families to be able to receive federal rental subsidies in the longhaul. >> i appreciate that work. talk from the department's perspect you have about under spend when that has been going on there? >> absolutely. throughout chair i think as you heard from the bla we have been making press on spending down the contract there is projected under spends nothing general

fund this is large low due to in early of 23 and fiscal 23/24, we had a learning influx come online of other permanent supportive housing options for families including 200 units at city gardens the large expansion of flexible housing, et cetera. we were able to transition 19 to 20 families enrolled and that need longer term subsidies in the options. >> at the beginning of the year we had a gap in subsidies as we were w to enroll more families in this program. so again we are catching up on this spending and i assume that the program is enrolled we see that continue to be spent down in future years. >> all right. thank you. i think this is important and i would like to be add as a cosponsor. >> thank you. supervisor melgar.

thank you very much. i was wondering if you could talk about the continuum of housing. you know families who are homeless or housing insecure. come from different points of the event rows in the system. and wondering what collaboration you ramp out your week up your capacity, what collaboration do we have with those different points? i am thinking about the san francisco unified school district, we have the shelter but we have 2 thousand kids who are housing insecure or homeless. sloping on auntie's couch that has a profound impact on academic achievement. how we are thinking about the different ways andent row point and making sure that you know

families are successful and don't fall further down rather than progress up in this housing market families tends to do. and like to be added as a cosponsor. thank you. why wonderful. thank you very much. one thing that is important about the respectid rehouse is it provides another level of options and opportunity for families. for those family nas may be not stablely housed but inside shelter is in the the right option but this program that is for the time limited subsidy with workforce development and help that family stabilize and move to independent living is the goal. this played an important per in our per foal i don't of family options for families. with sfusd we can work close low with them to make sure they know how to refer families in the

programs and how to have them be assessed for whatever appropriate housing option might be available for them. thank you. let's go to public comment. we invite public who have joined us who wish to speak on item one now is your opportunity to address the committee. i will start your time. >> thank you for giving us the opportunity will i'm frank delacampo the real estate manager for hamilton families. and so i over seat team the intake team and staff that do work on the front end of the client's journey through our program. i wanted share a success store and paint a narrative of the out come we find through our program at hamilton families. so, one common things we find.

our department works with the case management team. and so as we on the front end a rapid process of getting families houses quickly as possible. one family that sticks out this past year was the family that came in single parent, 3 small children. and came in to our program with quite a bit of distrust of the system in general they encountered in the past. through the work with our program and case managers on hand with the workforce development team in house we noticed such a steady increase in terms of stability and long-term sustain ability and their ability to get back on a good footing secure childcare for children and gone back to training opportunity for finding employment and about 2-3 months ago case manager reported this one example, which is one of

dozens and you know -- a lot of families that come through was able to secure full time. am. we are on the right path in terms of planning. because our program is short term and understand that the goal is within the 2 years in the program what we get them to transition off of our program and stay housed and prevent them from coming become to the system. that is one of men stories our team works through and the partnerships of the landlords we work with. why thank you. >> thank you. if we have members of the public who wish to address the committee? that completes the queue >> public comment is closed. and with this i like to move this item to full board with recommendation and i roll call y. on this motion to forward this to the full board with positive recommendation. vice chair mandelman. >> aye. >> member melgar. >> aye >> chair chan. aye. >> thank you.

does that rank relative to other tshgs psh buildings >> it is low compared to other psh buildings. when i will say is there was also a low rate of response to that tenant satisfaction survey in 22/23 due to the reserved fire and impacted office space and community space. since getting the results conard house taken steps to both address making sure more tenants are filling out that survey and addressing the issues that were raised dissatisfaction to tenants >> what were the issues? some were related to safety and security at the site that had been impacted by the fire. including like a fence on the roof. security cameras, et cetera. conard house applied for one time capitol improve am fund in thes 23 bash and hsh awarded over 100 thousand dollars this

year that is under contract to address some of those issues. the other thing conard house is doing is they have month low community meetings with attentives at mc calster hotel. they will be setting up month low committee meetings with tenabilities to understand issues of dissatisfaction and address those as they arise rather than waiting for the surveys. >> and then this is i basic question. this is a cash hotel. not a -- what is relationship with coordinated entry and care not cash? >> care not cash is the one of the major funding source for this hotel. coordinatedents rew would manage the referrals in the hotel as it is permanent supportive housing.

>> how does that. two different d.s hsa managing care not cash program and obligated to provide housing for people who are going on cap and don't housing or shelter going on cap and don't have it. how does that relate to coordinated entry that seems like a different scheme. >> through the chair. i apologize you are correct we have additional cap placements that are happening i believe they do go through an eligibility assessment. i need to check with the team to understand how this works at this site. i would be interested general low in knowing. i want to i'm interested in the relationship with the two priorities. care not cash and management of

coordinated entries may be we can follow up off line >> of i'm happy to. we have good niche policy protocol do we have a sense how they are america up by that standard? >> through the chair, we have good neighbor policy in all of our agreements not something i have looked at a have not on my end received concerns from naeshs around mc calster hotel. >> nothing we standardly. in the list of things we check on for it is not a thing part of it now? correct. >> i will say we have colleagues from conard house i'm happy to invite them to speak about conscience around the holing or good neighbor questioning. >> yes.

i'm sandra daves i worked if everfor the associate directoror for supportive housing with hsa and worked around mc calster since 2004 and worked hard to develop good reps with neighbors including uc hastings and developing a rep with the cfo there. we work diligently with the restaurant in our building. we >> and they would say you are a good neighbor? >> i'm sorry >> they would say you are a good neighbor. >> i would hope so. i think we try to meet their need its is difficult to be a restaurant and an sro. but i have not had any complaints. we have not had complaints from any neighbors: >> do you have a sense how

coordinatedent row relates to care not cash placements in the building. >> so, i do. so, we work closely with the team called housing access team. who also works with they get referrals from coordinatedents row and the housing access team sends the referrals. we had -- a 20 year relationship with the housing access team. and they are the 1 who is managed all those referrals this come to our site we do a pretty good job of handling that our vacancy rates are very low >> i'm not concern about that, i think in the -- care not cash seems like a basic you get you have this benefit you are entitleed this thing we gotta find you a thing and now go in this hotel. coordinatedent row looking not

the benefit as the like you are in need your level of need based on a set of things we are looking at. have -- has coordinated entry's sort of being brought in this framework how you are receiving residents, do you feel it impacted the population in your building? >> i have to honestly say the acutity level has increased and a huge impact on the satisfaction levels we are see negligent surveys. so, i -- there are a lot of sicker people. >> there are a lot of people with more people with mental health and substance use challenges than we ever experienced and behavioral challenges as a result. that you know have impacted things like our elevator service

from vanld limp or fires. we had a fire in 2022. cause 100 thousand dollars over. worth of damage. really -- made it difficult for residents to you know live in a building is full of -- remediation -- blowers and -- all of the stuff that come with a water damaged building. >> and -- has there been comment increase in resources from the city as we sends you a more challenging and population of residents. if we change how weendz you residentses and the way we change is make them meatier and

the building hearder to manage, has there been a conversation about that with the city and is the city providing additional resources to help manage a population with greater need sns >> i would say and thank our hsh partners for introducing the facts team like i apologize i can't remember the acronym. nurse this come out pharmaceutical who come out and do bedside prescriptions for folks who have substance use disorders. they have amped up their training so we had a series of oppressed trainings that helped us provide information on how to work with folks with substance use disorders and engage people on that level. and most recently a training

that talked about with corporation of supportive housing that talked about the first year of house when somebody come in and -- you know what needs to be done put in place to help with stabilization. i would thank them for that. >> and the executive director. nice to see everybody. thank you, sand ramp i add-on i think the [inaudible] increases i think helped and also the setting of 30% of minimum of people's mack income going to rent. i will say the mc calster was initiated with a budget deficit years ago. i think there is need for an aadditional staff and we near conversation with hsh during a difficult budget time to see if we increase funds to the contract moving forward n.

meantime there has been a partnership on one time only funds to address the urgent needs. thank you. >> thank you. may i clarify on the referrals you heard from conard colleagues but confirming that 84ed nayed entry does determine and upon ensure this folks are eligible that are on cap hsh housing access team makes the referrals to the hotel. and will i'm calling a friends here upon wanted correct the record in terms of tenant satisfaction surveys 50% respondsed the survey. of those 50% 84 were satisfied. it was still below when we aim for which is 90% of satisfaction but of the 50% the satisfaction

rate was fairly high. >> all right. i have been exploring this with contracts coming before us. i do think that having gone through this massive expansion and psh it is important tong about how it is work negligent challenge this is we are asking the providers to manage. it looks like we are going in a period we will not have much money to do new psh with exceptions. and may be a good thing in giving us an opportunity to look at the existing stock of psh and how to invest resource. we do have quite a baptist built up unspent mental health dollars from prop c this may be changing. seems like providing additional

resources if we use the buildings for severe mental illnesses and addiction i think that would be an interesting thing. i know you are already doing it. with that let's go to public upon comment on this item >> yes. members have joined us today wishing it address the committee on item 2 now is your opportunity. i would like to share a few success stories why this program is a critical part of the supportive housing portfolio. our success has been meetings client needs transferring residentses to independent housing or meets health

challenges. this fiscal year alone our supportive service staff and hsh has transferred 13 residents. folk who is are unable to maintain housing due to complex medical needs or physical needs, avoid averification or poor health out come. this means more folks without housing or shelter can find homes. most residents move for health reasons we had many who do to the housing ladder rented studio apartments after move nothing one studio apartment a grateful resident stated upon he was grateful to supportive service. and stated, i feel like a regular person. despite the moves and therefore vacancies our property management worked quickly to over turn units and staff processed new move in is ensure

low vacancy rates and high unit. public comment is closed vice chair mandelman. i want to thank the public commenter. and i think it is encourage to here this people who are no longer promote for psh you are w to get them in other units. so, thank you. >> i'd like to coresponse this. >> thank you. i would like to move this item to full board with recommendation and a roll call, >> on that motion to forward this to a full board with positive recommendation vice chair mandelman. >> aye >> member melgar. >> aye. >> chair chan. >> aye.

>> i'm san francisco's first drag laureate and the first one in the world. the drag laureate program and the position is one this celebrates an artist for being the best in their craft and i'm proud to have received that xroel it it is afternoon ambassador role. a role that represents the lbgtq+ community in san francisco the focus on the drag performers and trans-activists and performers in san francisco as well. when i heard the city was creating the drag laureate role i was so excited because it did foal like they were paying attention to us. and cared about when we gave culturally and economically to the city >> here is your new drag

laureate for the city and county of san francisco! i'm getting the call from the mayor i was chosen was fantastic day. i will always remember. i thought that it would just be about the bay area. because of what happening in the world it became a national story. i hope it can shine a light on san francisco and how they take care of the drag community and the lbgtq+ community. i hope that i can help carve out this position and create a role with programs and events this can be passed down to future drag laureate this is come after me and can set a stage and standard for what this program is in san francisco and national low and inner nationally. there is a rich history in san

francisco. that the drag community has been part of. i'm very proud to follow in their footsteps and able to maintain what the drag community has done in the past and move forward with creating a bright future. my job is to elevate and celebrate san francisco is known as a city filled with diversity culture and progressive ideas. our ever changing city and the people within in. but it was not always this way, women struggled to have one of their own on their life until 2021. it would not be until 32 years

later that the mex women clarissa mcman served in the board of supervisors. since then women have continued to make significant contributions to the board of supervisors. so who are these women? and what impact have they made with their time on the board. >> to be honest it came as a surprise when i became as a supervisor. i was working as a deputy director in the mayor's office and there were some challenges with the then supervisor and mayor gavin newsom at the time removed that supervisor from office. i was asked to serve on the role. it was a quick transition, but i got into public service because i really believe that government is a place where you can create opportunities and level the playing field. >> madam clerk, would you please call the roll. >> i was on the board of supervisors from 2001 to 20111. i have been involved in working my community, there was scheduling to be a

redevelopment area plan and as african americans we knew that meant, that was usually a removal of certain kinds of people. so because fs path, there had to be a committee formed of all the people that lived in the community. everybody had to be involved in this committee and there were certain rules and regulations and we had to get neighbors to vote for us and so we did that and i did that, and i won the seat on that committee and that kind of started everything. >> supervisor kristenson. >> i think having women in the board of supervisors and legislative bodies all around the country have meant that some of the issues that have traditionally called family issues are now raised .d >> i think san francisco and the rest of the country here is very behind and i think that you know, many mothers, they don't have a choice about whether they get to return to work or not. >> having individuals who are women in all of these places helps to create, a more rich dialogue around what policy

choices actually mean and what the impact to people and family and lives would be. so sing having women on the board here in the city has been impactful in that way. >> supervisor kim, kim presentation. >> democracy is about representation, how can you leave off over half of the population. a lot of women are not just taking care of children but taking care of parents and working so all of those life's experiences are part now of our policies of our city policies and throughout the country >> supervisor breed. >> here. >> breed present. >> supervisor maxwell. >> we saw two of san francisco female mayor having originated from the board of supervisors as well. that's where people are seen as leaders and get exposure and have the influence to influence policy. i think it's important to see ourselves in that. >> supervisor cohen.

cohen present. >> doris championed rent control. contracts for black women, women of color and small businesses, he will a was really really special, she was really who motivated me. she worked for the lawu, she was a switch board operator and then secretary. and then founded an organization cofounded with somebody called congress of racial equity core. so the lin she came with was about equity, about young women, seniors at-risk youth having jobs. it was about more police guided. those three women to me left their legacy. >> supervisor elliot. >> when you think about the legislative and women legislatures, i think the

tendency is to find a women issue that would otherwise won be covered. but so many of our legislatures women included have touched on so many faucets of policies. it's important to be seen through your life experiences how you identify and for a young girls, i think having women on the board is important because you get to see that you actually changed seat yourself in that power of decision. >> that concludes business for today. >> there was one where the fellows, at the time, they were arguing and i was the only women and only african-american, and i'm sitting there, thinking oh my god, it's a room full of people because it's a board day and i'm thinking, what can i say to stop this. so the universe gave me the words, gentlemen, let us be about the people of business. and of course all the people started clapping. and they had to do what?

they had to act like gentleman, that one for me, showed the importance of having women, having the importance of having african-americans and the african-american women. >> to the women of the board, past, present and future, thank you for your strength, grace, and commitment to changing san francisco for the better. let's continue to make history.
