San Francisco Faith Leaders and Colleagues,
Let me start by thanking each of you for your ongoing partnership and support in serving our city’s most vulnerable throughout every season. As the holidays approach, I am especially grateful for the humanity and warmth you bring to every neighbor and community in San Francisco.
I am writing to you in advance of what we expect will be an exceptionally wet, cold, and windy El Niño season. The City, along with the Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing, is looking at every option available to extend shelter to those who need to come indoors when inclement weather hits.
To that end, I am reaching out to see if there are any additional sites that would be willing to volunteer suitable unused space this upcoming winter, above and beyond commitments already made as part of the Interfaith Winter Shelter, for which I am so grateful.
We would only activate the space if all other existing sites were filled to capacity, and we would use existing contracts to staff and supply the sites.
If you are at all interested in learning more about this opportunity, please contact my colleague Benjamin Amyes at Benjamin.Amyes@sfgovor, or by calling 415-320-4938.
Again, please accept my sincere gratitude for all that you and your organizations do!
In partnership,
Mike Levine
Director
San Francisco Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing
