You enter by way of a steep wooden staircase, which leads to a warren of small rooms. One exam room still has a wall covered by a faded psychedelic mural, featuring a collage of famous rock stars, naked bodies and peace signs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The decor used to be even more colorful, according to lab manager Pam Olton. She has worked at the Free Clinic for more than 40 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Pink, aqua, Day-Glo orange … all of these exam rooms were painted in those Day-Glo colors,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Olton explained the colors helped the hippies feel welcome, easing their drug-induced paranoia or reassuring them that the clinic was a safe space.

Police officers would frequently show up and search the rooms, looking for illicit drugs and underage runaways.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Smith was determined to keep the clinic open.

Sometimes hospitals turned them away.

A pit bull puppy flopped across their legs. They sat up and happily accepted everything Eric offered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hey, so you guys, you guys need any medical attention at all?” Eric asked. “Do you got Medi-Cal?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sean and Kat are from Ukiah, in Mendocino County, and had been in San Francisco for only a month. They needed advice, and Eric had plenty: They talked about places to get day-old pastries, charities that offered free breakfast or lunch, or even showers. Eric pointed out the clinic. They discussed getting the puppy fixed at the SPCA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You guys use?” Eric asked. “I mean I’m an old junkie, all right?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re working on quitting,” Kat said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Oh what, heroin?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No,” said Sean.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Meth?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Slamming it?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Smoking?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah, we smoke.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kat told Eric she used to slam, meaning she used to inject it. But after meeting Sean, she was able to stop that. He helped her “get off the needle.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Eric jumped on this: “Really? So you guys are together. And you’re supporting one another, all right?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Giving up the needle is a small step, but a positive one. It’s a little less harmful. Eric wanted them to know he gets it: They’re \u003ci>trying\u003c/i>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So you guys, come and talk to me, OK?” he told them. “Seriously, if you want help at all. I don’t care if you don’t want recovery or not, but just to know that there’s someone out there. I used to get high right here in this alley, dude, back in the day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The kind of care Eric is offering — nonjudgmental, patient, compassionate — goes straight back to the earliest days of the Haight Ashbury Free Clinic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s an unremarkable approach these days, common in social services.

It’s a large network of social service agencies, tackling a variety of problems besides health care: domestic abuse, rehabilitation for ex-inmates, gay, lesbian and transgender health, and addiction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Consolidating with other agencies helped the Haight Ashbury Free Clinic survive.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seven years ago, in 2010, it was struggling financially. Some staffers had been caught embezzling, and the clinic couldn’t afford the transition to electronic medical records, a new requirement of the Affordable Care Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2011, the Free Clinic joined forces with \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthright360.org/agency/walden-house\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Walden House\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a nearby addiction recovery center.

But he does miss the intimacy of those early days, when volunteers from the neighborhood worked at the clinic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When money got tight, there were benefit concerts featuring local bands like Big Brother and the Holding Company, during the time Janis Joplin was the lead singer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Smith lived in the Haight, and so did Janis Joplin. He remembered the night he saved her life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was somebody at our clinic that was close with her — her name was Sunshine,” he recalled. “It was near the Grateful Dead house, and we got a call that she’d overdosed. So we zipped up there with the Narcan and reversed her overdose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was a wonderful woman, a great singer, very involved in the community,” Smith said. “But she had a very serious addiction problem, bounced back and forth between heroin and alcohol.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the Summer of Love, free clinics opened in Seattle, L.A. and Berkeley. By the end of the ’60s, the U.S. had dozens of free clinics, a third of them in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All were founded on that simple principle Dr. Smith first articulated 50 years ago: Health care is a right, not a privilege. No matter how you look, dress or act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In other words, when you get treated in a humane way in the medical system, the spirit of the Summer of Love lives on,” Smith said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Some staffers had been caught embezzling, and the clinic couldn’t afford the transition to electronic medical records, a new requirement of the Affordable Care Act.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2011, the Free Clinic joined forces with \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthright360.org/agency/walden-house\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Walden House\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a nearby addiction recovery center.

But he does miss the intimacy of those early days, when volunteers from the neighborhood worked at the clinic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When money got tight, there were benefit concerts featuring local bands like Big Brother and the Holding Company, during the time Janis Joplin was the lead singer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Smith lived in the Haight, and so did Janis Joplin. He remembered the night he saved her life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There was somebody at our clinic that was close with her — her name was Sunshine,” he recalled. “It was near the Grateful Dead house, and we got a call that she’d overdosed. So we zipped up there with the Narcan and reversed her overdose.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She was a wonderful woman, a great singer, very involved in the community,” Smith said. “But she had a very serious addiction problem, bounced back and forth between heroin and alcohol.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the Summer of Love, free clinics opened in Seattle, L.A. and Berkeley. By the end of the ’60s, the U.S. had dozens of free clinics, a third of them in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All were founded on that simple principle Dr. Smith first articulated 50 years ago: Health care is a right, not a privilege.

But the other end of the market is also undergoing a radical transformation.

Faced with an uncertain future, current residents are skeptical about their place in the new plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s frustrating because I don’t know what they’re going to do with me, and we don’t have a choice. We don’t,\" said Antoinette Cowden, a Potrero Hill resident, about the new development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Built in the 1940s, the Potrero projects are home to roughly 1,200 people divided into two sections, Potrero Terrace and Potrero Annex. Residents are isolated, and the buildings are run-down and neglected.

The other three Hope SF developments are in Hunters View, Alice Griffith and Sunnydale. Construction on both Hunters View and Alice Griffith is underway, and phase one of Sunnydale is expected to break ground soon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan to integrate public, affordable and market-rate housing is a main tenet of Hope SF and a national trend in public housing redevelopment. The Potrero plan calls for the sale of land to private developers who will build 817 market-rate units -- both rentals and condos -- and roughly 200 low-income or below-market units, in addition to replacing and maintaining the 600 public housing units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Integrating market-rate and public housing is a way to “solve the chronic underfunding of public housing by bringing in new resources,” according to Dan Adams, director of Bridge Potrero, the master developer in charge of the project. “Market-rate housing is essentially subsidizing public housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One downside of this approach: Similar projects throughout the country have seen a net decrease in the amount of public housing units, according to Adams, as developers obviously prefer the highly profitable market-rate housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery columns=\"2\" size=\"medium\" ids=\"11608371,11608436\"]\u003cbr>\n“They say they’re going to mix us up with teachers, doctors and all that. I doubt it,” Cowden said. “We’re losing everything, because this condominium will go to the rich people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The skepticism of current residents is rooted in San Francisco’s long history of displacing black communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This has been done over the centuries. This ain’t nothing new,” said John W. Smith Jr., president of the Potrero Hill Tenants Association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After World War II, the city undertook an \u003ca href=\"http://hoodline.com/2016/01/how-urban-renewal-destroyed-the-fillmore-in-order-to-save-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">extensive redevelopment of the Fillmore district\u003c/a> that resulted in the displacement of tens of thousands of African-Americans residents.

The Potrero plan calls for the sale of land to private developers who will build 817 market-rate units -- both rentals and condos -- and roughly 200 low-income or below-market units, in addition to replacing and maintaining the 600 public housing units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Integrating market-rate and public housing is a way to “solve the chronic underfunding of public housing by bringing in new resources,” according to Dan Adams, director of Bridge Potrero, the master developer in charge of the project. “Market-rate housing is essentially subsidizing public housing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One downside of this approach: Similar projects throughout the country have seen a net decrease in the amount of public housing units, according to Adams, as developers obviously prefer the highly profitable market-rate housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The Allen Temple Baptist Church in East Oakland hosted a number of city and county officials this month to discuss a response to an encampment nearby known as the “Living Room.” The city promised to provide bathrooms and washing stations as well as health services by Aug. 22, according to a church spokeswoman.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11597452\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11597452\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/IMG_2840-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A man who calls himself “Akie” says the encampment at 29th Street underneath the freeway overpass should not be closed down because it provides a quiet and safe place for him to be. \u003ccite>(Devin Katayama/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Under the freeway overpass on 29th Street, a man who calls himself “Akie” is sitting on a twin mattress reading a newspaper.

Soon after, California \u003ca href=\"http://www.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/rghm/ap/Pages/main.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">passed a law\u003c/a> that requires updated mapping of major earthquake fault zones.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But due to a lack of funding, the effort ground to a halt not long after it began and resumed only about four years ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/shzp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">California Geological Survey’s\u003c/a> newly released \u003ca href=\"http://www.conservation.ca.gov/cgs/rghm/ap/Pages/PreliminaryMaps.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">mapping of the Santa Monica Fault\u003c/a> could, if approved after a 90-day public comment period, prohibit new construction on top of active sections of the fault and require extensive geological review for proposed development within 500 feet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The Santa Monica and Hollywood faults historically have been fairly quiet since the area’s been settled, as far as we know,” says California Geological Survey senior engineer Timothy Dawson. “The major concern is that these faults cover some of the most densely populated areas in the L.A. basin.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Santa Monica Fault helped shape a roughly 30-mile stretch from Pasadena to the Pacific. It’s why properties along sections of Santa Monica Boulevard in West L.A. — like the immense \u003ca href=\"https://www.lds.org/church/temples/los-angeles-california?lang=eng\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints\u003c/a> — sit a little higher than those on the other side.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11593578\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11593578\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-800x507.jpg\" alt=\"The Santa Monica Fault cleaves a path along portions of Santa Monica Boulevard creating steep slopes like the one that’s home to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.\" width=\"800\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-800x507.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-160x101.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-1020x646.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-1180x747.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-960x608.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-240x152.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-375x238.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/07/JCLSHill-520x329.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Santa Monica Fault cleaves a path along portions of Santa Monica Boulevard, creating steep slopes like the one that’s home to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. \u003ccite>(Ken Lund/Flickr)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>“What the fault has done mostly is create these things called fault scarps. The Mormon temple is actually on top of one of these fault scarps related to the Santa Monica Fault,” says Dawson. “Some geologists have referred to (it) as the most beautifully manicured fault scarp in the world.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new fault map drafts confirm what officials in Santa Monica have known for some time and have been preparing for. Earlier this year, the city approved what’s widely seen as the most sweeping \u003ca href=\"https://www.smgov.net/Departments/PCD/Programs/Seismic-Retrofit/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">seismic retrofit program\u003c/a> in California.

"content": "\u003cp>Officials in Orange County on Monday evicted roughly 100 people living on a half-mile-long homeless encampment along the bank of the Santa Ana River.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s the most visible example of the growing homeless problem in Orange County. Driving along several nearby freeways, you can see miles of makeshift tents and tarps along the cement banks of the dry riverbed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monday morning, the county descended on one segment of that burgeoning population. About a dozen vehicles -- sheriff’s cruisers, garbage trucks and county health officials’ cars -- lined up and moved in early to help the homeless residents clear out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The encampments lie in the shadow of two major attractions in Anaheim -- the major league baseball stadium for the Angels of Anaheim, and the Honda Center, home to the National Hockey League's Anaheim Ducks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those two sports venues had nothing to do with yesterday’s eviction, according to Orange County public works information officer Shannon Widor. He says this one section of riverbank is not part of the public trail that runs along the riverbed. Monday's move was prompted by public safety concerns, he said: It’s a flood channel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is a non-public area we’re maintaining,\" Widor said. \"We’re putting up security fencing, and we’re asking these people to move.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[audio src=\"http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/tcr/2017/07/2017-07-18b-tcr.mp3\" Image=\"https://u.s.kqed.net/2017/07/18/HomelessOCTent.jpg\" Title=\"Riverbank Homeless Evicted in Orange County\" program=\"The California Report\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of those people was Daniel Stockey, who has lived in the area, moving from spot to spot, for several years. Stockey said he’s never seen anything like the flood of homeless who have come to the river in the past six months or so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For a long time it was just a few people. I don’t know why it blew up like it did,\" Stockey said, “but then it was way out of control.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past year, the county has helped build two homeless shelters, and plans have been floated for three more. But county officials and homeless advocates are hampered by a lack of affordable housing in Orange County, so for now the bulk of the huge homeless encampment will remain along the river, with regular trash pickups scheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Widor said health officials were on hand during the eviction process to try to get some of the homeless residents hooked up with county services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stockey said he’ll just move on. He and his girlfriend saw the eviction notice posted on a fence five days ago, so he knew this was coming. He said he’s a union electrician, and hopes he’ll eventually be able to put a little money together to move to Oregon, where he has some family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like a little golf and relaxation,” he said with a crooked smile. “Maybe we’ll go to Oregon soon.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for now, he and his girlfriend spent Monday morning packing up their tent and belongings, and loading their stuff on a little cart attached to a bicycle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where will the two of them go?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have no idea, really,” Stockey said. “I’ve been looking around for a few days now, trying to find a spot. And I just don’t really know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one thing he does know, Stockey said, is that he’s done living along the riverbed. He expects these riverbank evictions to increase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County officials said they have no immediate plans for more.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Driving along several nearby freeways, you can see miles of makeshift tents and tarps along the cement banks of the dry riverbed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monday morning, the county descended on one segment of that burgeoning population. About a dozen vehicles -- sheriff’s cruisers, garbage trucks and county health officials’ cars -- lined up and moved in early to help the homeless residents clear out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The encampments lie in the shadow of two major attractions in Anaheim -- the major league baseball stadium for the Angels of Anaheim, and the Honda Center, home to the National Hockey League's Anaheim Ducks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those two sports venues had nothing to do with yesterday’s eviction, according to Orange County public works information officer Shannon Widor. He says this one section of riverbank is not part of the public trail that runs along the riverbed. Monday's move was prompted by public safety concerns, he said: It’s a flood channel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Stockey said he’s never seen anything like the flood of homeless who have come to the river in the past six months or so.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For a long time it was just a few people. I don’t know why it blew up like it did,\" Stockey said, “but then it was way out of control.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past year, the county has helped build two homeless shelters, and plans have been floated for three more. But county officials and homeless advocates are hampered by a lack of affordable housing in Orange County, so for now the bulk of the huge homeless encampment will remain along the river, with regular trash pickups scheduled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Widor said health officials were on hand during the eviction process to try to get some of the homeless residents hooked up with county services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stockey said he’ll just move on. He and his girlfriend saw the eviction notice posted on a fence five days ago, so he knew this was coming. He said he’s a union electrician, and hopes he’ll eventually be able to put a little money together to move to Oregon, where he has some family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like a little golf and relaxation,” he said with a crooked smile. “Maybe we’ll go to Oregon soon.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But for now, he and his girlfriend spent Monday morning packing up their tent and belongings, and loading their stuff on a little cart attached to a bicycle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where will the two of them go?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I have no idea, really,” Stockey said. “I’ve been looking around for a few days now, trying to find a spot. And I just don’t really know.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But one thing he does know, Stockey said, is that he’s done living along the riverbed. He expects these riverbank evictions to increase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>County officials said they have no immediate plans for more.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
