It is on hold in Alabama, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Wisconsin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hospital-like outpatient surgery standards are in place in Michigan, Missouri, Pennsylvania and Virginia, and it is blocked in Tennessee and Texas, according to the center, which represented the clinics in the Texas case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Texas passed a broad bill imposing several abortion restrictions in 2013. Texas clinics sued immediately to block it claiming it impermissibly interfered with a woman's constitutional right to an abortion. The clinics won several favorable rulings in a federal district court in Texas. But each time, the New Orleans-based 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals sided with the state, at first allowing challenged provisions to take effect and then upholding the law with only slight exceptions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where does Monday's decision fit in to the Supreme Court's historical rulings? \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/28/us/supreme-court-texas-abortion.html\" target=\"_blank\">Some context\u003c/a> from The New York Times:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Monday’s case, Whole Woman’s Health v. Hellerstedt, No. 15-274, concerned a more fundamental question and seemed poised to be the third installment in a legal trilogy on the scope of the constitutional right to abortion, one that started in 1973 with Roe v. Wade, which recognized a constitutional right to abortion, and continued in 1992 with Planned Parenthood v. Casey.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Casey decision said states may not place undue burdens on the constitutional right to abortion before fetal viability. Undue burdens, it said, included “unnecessary health regulations that have the purpose or effect of presenting a substantial obstacle to a woman seeking an abortion.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

I feel great about the leadership team around me,” Schaaf said. “I am not planning to resign at this time.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the allegations of sexual misconduct involving a teenager who calls herself Celeste Guap have continued to build over the course of several months. There are now at least 14 officers under investigation in the Oakland Police Department alone, while other law enforcement agencies in Richmond and Alameda County have also become implicated.

That’s why we are not just investigating the misconduct but also the investigative process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Oakland has had three police chiefs in nine days, and currently has no chief. The city administrator is overseeing the department. Did you have a succession plan in place when you let Chief Sean Whent go?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: The fact that Sean Whent went very quickly, that was not anticipated. We made decisions that we thought were the best at the moment. I have said that it was a mistake on my part to bring Ben Fairow in without having completely vetted him prior to announcing his appointment. But I do have confidence in our city administrator. Again, this is an appropriate time to exert some civilian oversight over the department. Also, of the men and women of the Police Department itself. They are just as outraged and disgusted by this scandal as I am.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Can you tell us why the third chief, Paul Figueroa, quit?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: Chief Figueroa submitted his resignation stating that he was unable to perform the duties of the job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Did he say why?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: He did not go into details and I know that it has been frustrating for the public. Believe me, it’s frustrating for me —\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Did you ask him for details?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: Can I finish answering your question without interruption?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Sure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: Thank you. It has been frustrating for the public and it is frustrating for me that state law prohibits the sharing of personnel information of a police officer. That protection extends to the chief. I have been as open and transparent as I’m legally allowed to be, but it is frustrating that the public will never understand all the details.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Do you think sexual misconduct personnel files should be made available to the public? Currently state law bars it from it being made public.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: I believe that there’s a lot of room for improvement to the current levels of protection that police officers have to their privacy. I believe that the public does have a right to know more than they are getting to know right now.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: State Sen. Mark Leno now is considering putting forth a measure before voters that would allow that — give more public access to misconduct and discipline files for law enforcement officers. Is that something you would campaign for?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: It’s something that I will give careful consideration to, particularly in light of the experience that I have had over the last month.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: We do now have a situation where there are three officers whose reputations have been tarnished in some respects because of this. Do you have any second thoughts about how you handled the situation?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: I do things that I believe are in the best long-term interest of the city of Oakland. Sometimes that feels painful in the short term but I always look to the long-term interests of my hometown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: You speak often about openness and transparency but your office is now investigating who leaked information, particularly to the media. Is that the best way to use resources and time?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: Typically the public learns about these types of offenses when someone is arrested or charges are brought. We are still in the middle of this investigation. But because the media has publicized a certain version of events, when we conduct an interview of a witness after that publicity has been released, a lawyer can later use that fact to discredit the testimony of the witness. And that is why we believe it’s in the public’s interest to not share these types of details about the investigation until it’s completed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: It’s become evident that this sexual misconduct had been going on for a while and a lot of people within the department seem to know about it. Yet no one came forth to tell you about it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: I have talked a lot this week about what I believe is a toxic macho culture. That’s why it’s important we not just look at our recruiting and screening practices — just at who is becoming a police officer — but the culture once they’re in the department. A culture of not coming forward and reporting this conduct, that is something that I’m very serious about getting underneath and reforming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Some community groups are also calling for your resignation. Your response?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: This is a great democracy. I love being an American because people are free to protest, to criticize their elected officials. That is part of the democratic process. I similarly am hearing tremendous amounts of support from the community, who appreciate the stance that I’ve taken.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: I take then, for the record, you have no plans to resign?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: I am not planning to resign at this time, no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: This scandal comes as the department is still trying to end 13 years of federal monitoring. That’s due to the brutality and false police reports that were brought forth in the Riders case. Why should Oakland residents have any confidence that the department’s problems can be fixed under your administration?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: It is frustrating. I think it is known that we were actually in negotiations around ending the court oversight when this scandal broke. Obviously, this does set back those discussions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Do you think that perhaps it’s time for the Police Department to be placed under federal receivership? Would the Oakland residents be better served?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: No, the Oakland residents are best served when the people that they elected to run the city are in fact running it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Looking back over your past year and a half as mayor, especially over the past two weeks, is there anything that you wish you had done differently?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: I feel very good about every decision that I have made. We have continued to make our decisions in the best long-term interest of this city and through our values of openness, honesty and integrity. That clarity of vision and commitment has very much helped guide me through these last difficult two weeks, and will continue to guide me in everything I do as the mayor Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Mayor of Oakland Libby Schaaf, thank you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated to include the fact that City Administrator Sabrina Landreth is now in charge of the Police Department as the city conducts a national search for a new chief.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Obviously, this does set back those discussions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Do you think that perhaps it’s time for the Police Department to be placed under federal receivership? Would the Oakland residents be better served?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: No, the Oakland residents are best served when the people that they elected to run the city are in fact running it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Looking back over your past year and a half as mayor, especially over the past two weeks, is there anything that you wish you had done differently?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schaaf: I feel very good about every decision that I have made. We have continued to make our decisions in the best long-term interest of this city and through our values of openness, honesty and integrity. That clarity of vision and commitment has very much helped guide me through these last difficult two weeks, and will continue to guide me in everything I do as the mayor Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vu: Mayor of Oakland Libby Schaaf, thank you.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The shooting was caught on cellphone video by multiple bystanders. The videos showed what one San Francisco supervisor described as a \"firing squad\" of officers shooting repeatedly at Woods, who was shot 21 times.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'What I see is a policy where de-escalation is front and center, and then there’s accountability throughout.'\u003ccite>Samara Marian,\u003cbr>\nOCC policy analyst\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Commissioner Joe Marshall said at the time that if the shooting was in keeping with policy, \"the policy has to change.\" He referenced the Mario Woods shooting at Wednesday night's meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That's one of the things that got us here in the first place, the insane gunfire,\" he said, during a discussion about whether officers should be required to reassess a threat after each round they fire. \"Because I have this image in my head of a bunch of shots being fired, and I think something should have been reassessed at some point, that's just the way I feel. ... I want them thinking all the time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Much of the new policy was set into motion by former Police Chief Greg Suhr, who \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/05/19/suhr-resigns-after-series-of-fatal-officer-involved-shootings\" target=\"_blank\">resigned last month\u003c/a> under pressure after an SFPD sergeant \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/05/19/s-f-police-shoot-kill-woman-after-confrontation-in-bayview\" target=\"_blank\">fatally shot\u003c/a> Jessica Williams while trying to remove her from a car. An outright prohibition on shooting at moving vehicles -- absent some other weapon -- was one change Suhr reportedly pushed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission was set to consider several different draft versions, but settled on a compromise draft with about a dozen sticking points delivered just hours before the meeting and replete with edit marks and comments. Confusion over the multiple drafts drew some criticism, but civil liberties advocates, including the ACLU, San Francisco Office of Citizen Complaints and the local bar association, said the majority of the policy represents good compromise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think in a majority of places, we’re on the same page,\" OCC policy analyst Samara Marian said. \"I’m also balancing it out with the desire to get a policy in place and get training in place.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Police Commission's first vote is not the final word, and before they're codified, SFPD's new use-of-force orders are headed for a bargaining process between the city's Department of Human Resources and police officers' union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Commission President Suzy Loftus tried unsuccessfully to get assurance from the San Francisco Police Officers Association that they would not seek to bargain on points of the policy already agreed upon, which all parties estimated constituted about 80 percent of the document. POA President Martin Halloran refused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=\"qCWTHj9Vh2tsniOLIj8RrY97SS33yjbP\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The meet-and-confer process is not done here in open forum,\" Halloran said, adding that the commission's decisions on the sticking points could affect the union's position on the rest of the policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Loftus asked if the union would hold the policy \"hostage\" in negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I understand you have those rights, and they’re afforded to you, but this department needs the ability to move forward on this change as soon as possible,\" Loftus said. \"We’ll use any means that we have available to us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are not holding anything hostage,\" Halloran said. \"We would not vote against the entire policy, no. ... There is too much in there that has already been agreed upon.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The points in agreement include a broad policy statement on safeguarding \"life, dignity and liberty of all persons,\" forceful orders to de-escalate potentially violent suspects (when feasible) and robust data collection and publishing requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>POA secretary and SFPD Lt. Mike Nevin said he pushed for the inclusion of this line: \"The authority to use force is a serious responsibility given to peace officers by the people, who expect them to exercise that authority judiciously and with respect for human rights, dignity and life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe that to my core,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What I see is a policy where de-escalation is front and center,\" Marian said, \"and then there’s accountability throughout.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But San Francisco's law enforcement and police accountability communities didn't agree on everything. Three issues emerged as major sticking points: the union's desire to include a state penal code section stating that peace officers do not have a duty to retreat when they encounter resistance; the prohibition on shooting at vehicles; and the use of a particular, but easily misapplied, control hold called the carotid restraint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the restraint is correctly applied, an officer's forearm and bicep compress the carotid arteries on either side of a suspect's neck, depriving the brain of blood and oxygen until he or she loses consciousness. Incorrectly applied, the carotid restraint can become a chokehold, in which an officer's forearm compresses a suspect's trachea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission voted against the POA on all three major sticking points.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the POA said in a statement issued Thursday that it will seek to bargain over those points with the city's Department of Human Resources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevin and Halloran referenced a testimonial from an unnamed SFPD officer in support of keeping the carotid restraint as an option for San Francisco police:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"I am a 5'4\" female that has rarely used force in my 28 years of law enforcement. However, in moments where I have been attacked, the carotid restraint has saved my life. It has saved my life three times because the person that attacked me was huge and extremely violent. The carotid restraint applied correctly due to training was perfectly effective and caused no injury to the suspect. It is a tool that can be effectively used by all officers -- small, large, male, female -- to safely manage a violent suspect.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\"To us, that’s an officer safety issue,\" Nevin said. \"We would want to discuss that [in negotiations].\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Read the draft policy \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/2896325-EPSON012.html\" target=\"_blank\">here\u003c/a>, with reporter's notes on how the Police Commission ruled on highlighted issues in disagreement.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Confusion over the multiple drafts drew some criticism, but civil liberties advocates, including the ACLU, San Francisco Office of Citizen Complaints and the local bar association, said the majority of the policy represents good compromise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think in a majority of places, we’re on the same page,\" OCC policy analyst Samara Marian said. \"I’m also balancing it out with the desire to get a policy in place and get training in place.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the Police Commission's first vote is not the final word, and before they're codified, SFPD's new use-of-force orders are headed for a bargaining process between the city's Department of Human Resources and police officers' union.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Commission President Suzy Loftus tried unsuccessfully to get assurance from the San Francisco Police Officers Association that they would not seek to bargain on points of the policy already agreed upon, which all parties estimated constituted about 80 percent of the document. POA President Martin Halloran refused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The meet-and-confer process is not done here in open forum,\" Halloran said, adding that the commission's decisions on the sticking points could affect the union's position on the rest of the policy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Loftus asked if the union would hold the policy \"hostage\" in negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I understand you have those rights, and they’re afforded to you, but this department needs the ability to move forward on this change as soon as possible,\" Loftus said. \"We’ll use any means that we have available to us.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are not holding anything hostage,\" Halloran said. \"We would not vote against the entire policy, no. ... There is too much in there that has already been agreed upon.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The points in agreement include a broad policy statement on safeguarding \"life, dignity and liberty of all persons,\" forceful orders to de-escalate potentially violent suspects (when feasible) and robust data collection and publishing requirements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>POA secretary and SFPD Lt. Mike Nevin said he pushed for the inclusion of this line: \"The authority to use force is a serious responsibility given to peace officers by the people, who expect them to exercise that authority judiciously and with respect for human rights, dignity and life.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I believe that to my core,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What I see is a policy where de-escalation is front and center,\" Marian said, \"and then there’s accountability throughout.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But San Francisco's law enforcement and police accountability communities didn't agree on everything. Three issues emerged as major sticking points: the union's desire to include a state penal code section stating that peace officers do not have a duty to retreat when they encounter resistance; the prohibition on shooting at vehicles; and the use of a particular, but easily misapplied, control hold called the carotid restraint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the restraint is correctly applied, an officer's forearm and bicep compress the carotid arteries on either side of a suspect's neck, depriving the brain of blood and oxygen until he or she loses consciousness. Incorrectly applied, the carotid restraint can become a chokehold, in which an officer's forearm compresses a suspect's trachea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission voted against the POA on all three major sticking points.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the POA said in a statement issued Thursday that it will seek to bargain over those points with the city's Department of Human Resources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevin and Halloran referenced a testimonial from an unnamed SFPD officer in support of keeping the carotid restraint as an option for San Francisco police:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>\"I am a 5'4\" female that has rarely used force in my 28 years of law enforcement. However, in moments where I have been attacked, the carotid restraint has saved my life. It has saved my life three times because the person that attacked me was huge and extremely violent. The carotid restraint applied correctly due to training was perfectly effective and caused no injury to the suspect. It is a tool that can be effectively used by all officers -- small, large, male, female -- to safely manage a violent suspect.\"\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>\"To us, that’s an officer safety issue,\" Nevin said. \"We would want to discuss that [in negotiations].\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In the second case, passers-by reportedly detained the driver believed to be involved in the crash. (More details on the fatalities \u003ca href=\"#hitrundeaths\">below\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Golden Gate Park victim was identified as Heather Miller, 41. The woman killed at Seventh and Howard was Katherine Slattery, 26. Both were San Francisco residents. Here's \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/Two-bicyclists-killed-in-separate-SF-hit-and-run-8321105.php\" target=\"_blank\">the San Francisco Chronicle's account\u003c/a> of how the fatal episodes unfolded:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Miller was killed around 6 p.m. Wednesday while bicycling east on JFK Drive in Golden Gate Park. Police said a man driving a stolen white Honda in the westbound direction hit her when he veered into the opposite lane while attempting to speed around slower cars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The driver of the Honda fled the scene, officials said. The vehicle was later found abandoned at the Anglers Lodge in Golden Gate Park. Authorities said the car had been reported stolen and that they are in communication with the registered owner. They were still searching for the suspect Thursday afternoon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Just before 8:30 p.m., Slattery was killed when a man in a black BMW SUV headed west on Howard Street sped through a red light and struck her as she was pedaling north on Seventh Street, police said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That driver continued on to a gas station at Ninth and Howard streets, where he hit a parked vehicle and stopped, officials said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A citizen spotted the driver and made him to stay at the scene until police arrived and took him into custody. Officials do not believe drugs or alcohol were involved. The driver ... was arrested on suspicion of felony hit-and-run and vehicular manslaughter.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Police have identified the driver as Farrukh Mushtaq, 32, of San Francisco. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a Thursday morning press conference at San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency headquarters, Lee called the incidents \"the consequences of total irresponsibility. We cannot have that in our city.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the city's \u003ca href=\"http://visionzerosf.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Vision Zero\u003c/a> program to eliminate traffic deaths is showing progress and vowed to work along with groups representing pedestrians, cyclists and seniors to get the city to \"come together even stronger to reinforce the standards of using our streets appropriately.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee returned repeatedly to the suggestion that individuals driving on city streets are not behaving responsibly.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"As much as we are doing to educate the public, whether it's through signage, through education, we have to also do a level of enforcement to hold these individuals accountable and make sure that they are using our streets safely,\" Lee said. \"These are totally avoidable tragedies. Totally avoidable.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chris Cassidy, the communications director for the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition, called the Wednesday night fatalities \"an unprecedented night of tragedy for people biking in San Francisco.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But he added that Lee's remarks fail to address the ongoing death toll, which \u003ca href=\"http://sfgov.org/scorecards/traffic-fatalities\" target=\"_blank\">according to city statistics\u003c/a> includes 110 pedestrians killed in traffic collisions since July 2010.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think what we heard this morning from city leaders was hollow words without any detail,\" Cassidy said. \"The people of San Francisco deserve safer streets. That's the end of the discussion. They deserved them yesterday, and they deserve urgent steps and specific plans today by city leaders to deliver safer streets as soon as humanly possible.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bike coalition noted that the sites of Wednesday fatalities, on John F.

About 10 years ago it launched a \u003ca href=\"https://law.ucla.edu/student-life/student-organizations/el-centro-legal-clinics/reentry-legal-clinic/\">legal clinic with the help of the UCLA School of Law\u003c/a>. It's helped scores of women remove nonviolent felonies from their records. That can make it easier to get work and qualify for public housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson says demand for services is growing in the aftermath of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/california-prop-47\">Proposition 47\u003c/a>, the voter-approved state initiative that qualified thousands of nonviolent felons for early release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want to provide all these resources for all these people but we can’t. But provide for you can and it opens up,” says Johnson. “You know, we have a limited capacity. But when Miss Burton started, she only had a capacity of three rooms, I think maybe six people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson first came to A New Way of Life as a client after doing time for manslaughter. She killed a man in self-defense during an argument. It was her mother’s longtime boyfriend -- a predator, says Johnson, who sexually abused her for years when she was a child.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I lacked self-esteem for years. I will venture to say that all of my life I didn't have it, but they helped me,\" says Johnson of A New Way of Life. \"I started to get dreams back. I didn't have dreams before. Or I had nightmares.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One thing Johnson never dreamed of is taking over for Susan Burton. But she is. After 20 years at the helm, Burton is stepping down from the organization. Tiffany Johnson will be taking over as executive director. She’s nervous and excited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You know what, there’s a lot of the same emotions that I had when I came home from prison, something new, unfamiliar,\" says Johnson with a smile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10992401\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 485px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-10992401\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/06/solutions-2014-susan-in-selma-top.png\" alt=\"Susan Burton speaking at an 2015 event in Selma, Alabama commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Marches from Selma to Montgomery\" width=\"485\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/06/solutions-2014-susan-in-selma-top.png 485w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/06/solutions-2014-susan-in-selma-top-400x254.png 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 485px) 100vw, 485px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Susan Burton speaking at an 2015 event in Selma, Alabama, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the march from Selma to Montgomery \u003ccite>(Courtesy of A New Way of Life Re-entry Project)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"There's a lot behind the title.

About 10 years ago it launched a \u003ca href=\"https://law.ucla.edu/student-life/student-organizations/el-centro-legal-clinics/reentry-legal-clinic/\">legal clinic with the help of the UCLA School of Law\u003c/a>. It's helped scores of women remove nonviolent felonies from their records. That can make it easier to get work and qualify for public housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson says demand for services is growing in the aftermath of \u003ca href=\"http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/california-prop-47\">Proposition 47\u003c/a>, the voter-approved state initiative that qualified thousands of nonviolent felons for early release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We want to provide all these resources for all these people but we can’t. But provide for you can and it opens up,” says Johnson. “You know, we have a limited capacity. But when Miss Burton started, she only had a capacity of three rooms, I think maybe six people.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Johnson first came to A New Way of Life as a client after doing time for manslaughter. She killed a man in self-defense during an argument. It was her mother’s longtime boyfriend -- a predator, says Johnson, who sexually abused her for years when she was a child.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I lacked self-esteem for years. I will venture to say that all of my life I didn't have it, but they helped me,\" says Johnson of A New Way of Life. \"I started to get dreams back. I didn't have dreams before. Or I had nightmares.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One thing Johnson never dreamed of is taking over for Susan Burton. But she is. After 20 years at the helm, Burton is stepping down from the organization. Tiffany Johnson will be taking over as executive director. She’s nervous and excited.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You know what, there’s a lot of the same emotions that I had when I came home from prison, something new, unfamiliar,\" says Johnson with a smile.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_10992401\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 485px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-10992401\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2016/06/solutions-2014-susan-in-selma-top.png\" alt=\"Susan Burton speaking at an 2015 event in Selma, Alabama commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Marches from Selma to Montgomery\" width=\"485\" height=\"308\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/06/solutions-2014-susan-in-selma-top.png 485w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2016/06/solutions-2014-susan-in-selma-top-400x254.png 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 485px) 100vw, 485px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Susan Burton speaking at an 2015 event in Selma, Alabama, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the march from Selma to Montgomery \u003ccite>(Courtesy of A New Way of Life Re-entry Project)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\"There's a lot behind the title.
