SAN FRANCISCO 2021/2022 AND 2022/2023 BUDGET
SITUATION: San Francisco Mayor London Breed has submitted the Mayor’s Proposed Budget for 2021/2022 and 2022/2023. The Board of Supervisors is currently considering adjustments to the Mayor’s Proposed Budget. Now is the time for public input. The Senior and Disability Action (SDA) organization has identified the following three items that need to be included in the budget to benefit Seniors and Persons with Disabilities:
1. $3,000,000.00 to fund an existing rental subsidies program for Seniors and Persons with Disabilities to avert evictions and homelessness.
2. $3,000,000.00 to expand the existing Senior Operating Subsidies program that provides funding for Seniors whose income is Social Security or SSI so they can afford rental units in Senior Housing.
3. $900,000.00 for desktops, laptops, internet service, and digital training for Seniors and Persons with Disabilities.
ACTION: Call and/or e-mail your Supervisor by June 25, 2021 and ask for inclusion of these items in the City’s budget.
