Shaibi's wife and two sons \u003ca href=\"http://missionlocal.org/2015/03/after-fire-shaibi-family-searching-for-2-bedroom-in-mission/\" target=\"_blank\">were hospitalized but survived\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the couple's children, identified only as \"Witness 7\" in the report, told investigators he was asleep on the bottom bunk in a bedroom he shared with his younger siblings. When he awoke, he said, he could see smoke and hear his parents shouting that there was a fire and warning the children, \"Do not come out this way!\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As the bedroom filled with smoke, the witness said, he handed one of his younger siblings -- apparently a 6-year-old boy -- to a firefighter on a ladder at one of the bedroom's windows. In the meantime, though, his other sibling -- apparently Amal -- had vanished. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And I think once we do that we’re going to find people willing to engage with homeless families and get the help and support that they need,” says Mohan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are several definitions of what student homelessness actually looks like, according to the federal \u003ca href=\"http://www2.ed.gov/policy/elsec/leg/esea02/pg116.html\">McKinney-Vento Act\u003c/a>. Included are students \"who lack a fixed, regular and adequate nighttime residence,\" which may mean they live with relatives, in an emergency shelter or in a motel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In fact, most homeless youth live in families that are \"doubled up,\" or live with other families in the same household, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://nchespp.serve.org/profile/CA?residence_year=2012-13\">National Center for Homeless Education\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effects that different types of \u003ca href=\"http://developingchild.harvard.edu/science/key-concepts/toxic-stress/\">stress and trauma\u003c/a> can have on children have been well documented, along with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.icphusa.org/PDF/reports/Aftershocks_2_3_A_FIN.pdf\">impact of homelessness\u003c/a> and poverty on young people trying to learn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some people, like those involved in the \u003ca href=\"http://cahomelessyouth.library.ca.gov/docs/pdf/CaliforniasHomelessStudents_AGrowingPopulation.pdf\">California Homeless Youth Project\u003c/a>, have argued that understanding homelessness as its own separate issue is important to understanding the unique needs of homeless children and families.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stories like Danielle's and Christian's help us form the emotional connection to all the numbers and data that are used to make change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The story of Danielle and Christian came out of KQED's Oakland Open Newsroom, where we asked the public for their story ideas.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

But Goethals said that to really make a dent in the housing crisis, the city must significantly ramp up its production of market-rate and affordable housing units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A project Goethals wants the council to approve this year would build 400 units or more near downtown for city employees who make less than the \u003ca href=\"http://housing.smcgov.org/sites/housing.smcgov.org/files/AFFORD2014%2003%2020%202014.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">area's median income\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As elsewhere in the Bay Area region, demand for housing in San Mateo County far outweighs supply. From 2010 through 2015, state statistics show, the county labor force grew by about 78,000 while the number of housing units increased by just 3,600.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That imbalance is drawing the attention of county officials, who are studying whether to implement renter protections and other strategies on housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’ve had town hall meetings where a hundred people came and shared stories about evictions, but we wanted real data on rent increases and the real experience of people,\" said Warren Slocum, a member of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Slocum is also co-chair of the Closing the Jobs/Housing Gap task force, made up of elected officials, developers, nonprofits and business representatives, which plans to survey renters who live in pre-1995 buildings that are eligible for rent control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the county were to adopt rent control or just-cause-for-eviction ordinances, the measure would apply only to unincorporated areas such as North Fair Oaks, adjacent to Redwood City, Atherton and Menlo Park.

She has noticed overcrowding of homes on her street in the North Central neighborhood, traditionally a working-class area -- eight to 10 people living in a two-bedroom unit, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sometimes, they even rent out mattress spaces for ... $200, even $300 a month\" said Sanchez, referring to other ways she's heard people can afford to live in the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez, whose family owns a couple of rentals in the city, says they try to keep some of their rents under market rate. She would not be opposed to some sort of city regulation of rent increases, but believes any legislation should apply only to landlords who own more than 25 units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I do not agree with a blanket rent control,\" says Sanchez, co-president of the Home Association of North Central San Mateo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diane Fjeslstad, on the other hand, believes the city and county governments are failing residents because they are not addressing rent increases fast enough. Her personal experience was so shocking that it jolted her into working with groups pushing for rent control and just cause for eviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think it's good when a large segment of the population lives in fear of not having a home,\" Fjelstad said.\u003c/p>\n\n",

From 2010 through 2015, state statistics show, the county labor force grew by about 78,000 while the number of housing units increased by just 3,600.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That imbalance is drawing the attention of county officials, who are studying whether to implement renter protections and other strategies on housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’ve had town hall meetings where a hundred people came and shared stories about evictions, but we wanted real data on rent increases and the real experience of people,\" said Warren Slocum, a member of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Slocum is also co-chair of the Closing the Jobs/Housing Gap task force, made up of elected officials, developers, nonprofits and business representatives, which plans to survey renters who live in pre-1995 buildings that are eligible for rent control.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the county were to adopt rent control or just-cause-for-eviction ordinances, the measure would apply only to unincorporated areas such as North Fair Oaks, adjacent to Redwood City, Atherton and Menlo Park. Housing advocates say the county action could set a precedent for cities considering similar measures.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Overcrowding in Working-Class District\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bertha Sanchez, 78, has lived in San Mateo since 1946 and says she's sympathetic to the plight of residents who are increasingly unable to afford rents. She has noticed overcrowding of homes on her street in the North Central neighborhood, traditionally a working-class area -- eight to 10 people living in a two-bedroom unit, for example.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Sometimes, they even rent out mattress spaces for ... $200, even $300 a month\" said Sanchez, referring to other ways she's heard people can afford to live in the area.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sanchez, whose family owns a couple of rentals in the city, says they try to keep some of their rents under market rate. She would not be opposed to some sort of city regulation of rent increases, but believes any legislation should apply only to landlords who own more than 25 units.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I do not agree with a blanket rent control,\" says Sanchez, co-president of the Home Association of North Central San Mateo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Diane Fjeslstad, on the other hand, believes the city and county governments are failing residents because they are not addressing rent increases fast enough. Her personal experience was so shocking that it jolted her into working with groups pushing for rent control and just cause for eviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

But she said low wages and a lack of available hours, combined with California's high cost of living, mean that many workers aren't making ends meet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The governor acknowledged the state's growing inequality in his \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/01/21/Jerry-Brown-Delivers-State-of-State\" target=\"_blank\">State of the State speech\u003c/a>, but said the state has done much to \"counteract these powerful trends.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He cited the Jan. 1 minimum wage hike to $10 an hour, a new \u003ca href=\"https://www.ftb.ca.gov/individuals/faq/net/900.shtml\" target=\"_blank\">earned income tax credit \u003c/a>for the extremely poor, an expansion of paid sick leave and new health care coverage for undocumented children.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in his budget proposal this year, Brown pushed back against \u003ca href=\"http://www.scpr.org/news/2016/01/20/56885/raise-ca-s-minimum-wage-voters-will-likely-weigh-i/\" target=\"_blank\">two ballot measures that would raise the statewide minimum wage\u003c/a> to $15 an hour, saying they would cost the state as much as $4 billion a year by 2021 and return the state budget to annual deficits.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"LqpludYfAfpcHTf0upAKkqk0ZnHBSqBY\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's because the state pays many in-home care workers and others the minimum wage -- meaning they qualify for state programs like Medi-Cal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That rubs some Democrats the wrong way.
