San Francisco’s homeless crisis is holding us back and preventing us from being the world-class city we have been in the past and can be again.
It’s no secret that San Francisco doesn’t have enough shelter for our unsheltered population. Other candidates running for mayor are making promises to end street homelessness, but I have a real, achievable 5-point plan to get it done by the end of my first term.
You can read that plan here [[link removed]] .
Here’s my plan at a glance:
1.
Reform
the
“Point
in
Time
Count”
and
use
it
to
move
people
off
the
streets.
Because
you
can’t
manage
what
you
don’t
measure.
2.
Fund
at
least
1,000
homeward
bound
trips
each
year.
Anyone
who
is
homeless
and
wants
to
be
reconnected
with
family
should
be
offered
homeward
bound
at
every
stage
in
the
process
of
coming
inside.
3.
Provide
enough
shelter
to
enforce
“no
camping”
orders
in
our
neighborhoods.
We
can
do
so
by
creating
and
building
600
new
“tiny
home”
sleeping
cabins,
opening
5-10
new
Safe
Parking
sites,
converting
1,000
tourist
hotel
rooms
acquisitions
into
shelter,
and
leasing
over
500
hotel
rooms
as
soon
as
possible
for
families.
4.
Enforce
“No
Camping”
orders
with
neighborhood
support.
Once
we
have
created
a
“No
Camping”
order,
we
will
involve
neighborhood
residents,
activists,
and
the
district
supervisors
to
ensure
that
the
order
is
enforced.
5.
Prioritize
exits
from
homelessness
to
permanent
housing.
This
will
ensure
people
no
longer
languish
for
years
in
temporary
housing,
freeing
up
temporary
housing
for
others
on
their
pathways
out
of
homelessness.
As
mayor,
I’ll
commit
to
funding
an
additional
1,000
exits
each
year
from
homelessness.
We
can
also
move
costs
from
downstream
to
upstream
with
a
homelessness
to
housed
fund.
As
people
are
moved
into
safer
spaces
inside,
overall
costs
on
the
social
safety
net
will
also
be
reduced.
