Thus far, over 18 people have received matching pansy tattoos, and, as of today, the project has raised nearly $15,000 dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think that it’s a beautiful project and an example of how to show up for grassroot organizations,” said TC Caldwell, director of community engagement for the Alabama-based organization. They added that Black trans-led organizations in the South don’t see the same funding opportunities as others. The needs of their clients range from assistance with name/gender marker changes on IDs to food and stable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We can’t do this work without community. This is critical life-saving work,” Caldwell said.

It’s a way to connect their own politics to something bigger. The custom-designed tattoo is part of a vision to spread a physical symbol of “love, alliance and protection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Csillagi grew up in the South and has seen the impact of homophobia firsthand. For them, it’s solidified the importance of creating a shared symbol in the Bay Area and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just started to feel like I needed to do something, anything to help,” Csillagi said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being a tattoo artist is [an] incredibly beautiful profession, but it is often very individualized. It’s like one person’s journey through grief or transition … I wanted to open up my job and my skills to be more community-minded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Csillagi, a highly sought tattoo artist, is booked until 2024, but they will be creating a weekly time slot for those looking to get inked with a pansy tattoo. And they are also sharing the design so other tattoo artists can participate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel more and more connected to the image every time I do it,” Csillagi said. “Which is really beautiful to just do it over and over.

It’s a way to connect their own politics to something bigger. The custom-designed tattoo is part of a vision to spread a physical symbol of “love, alliance and protection.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Csillagi grew up in the South and has seen the impact of homophobia firsthand. For them, it’s solidified the importance of creating a shared symbol in the Bay Area and beyond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just started to feel like I needed to do something, anything to help,” Csillagi said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Being a tattoo artist is [an] incredibly beautiful profession, but it is often very individualized. It’s like one person’s journey through grief or transition … I wanted to open up my job and my skills to be more community-minded.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Csillagi, a highly sought tattoo artist, is booked until 2024, but they will be creating a weekly time slot for those looking to get inked with a pansy tattoo. And they are also sharing the design so other tattoo artists can participate.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel more and more connected to the image every time I do it,” Csillagi said. “Which is really beautiful to just do it over and over. It’s like I’m reiterating on my own ideals and my own politics around this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Los fondos se entregarán a los participantes a través de una tarjeta Visa de débito que el programa recargará con la misma cantidad cada mes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, asociada ejecutiva del Distrito Transgénero, señala que muchas personas trans de San Francisco siguen teniendo dificultades para hacer alcanzar el dinero debido a la situación económica, pero también a causa de la intolerancia y discriminación.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dice que algunas personas trans también se enfrentan a la falta de hogar y a la inseguridad de la vivienda después de haber sido expulsadas por la familia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Este programa propone mejorar este tipo de situación, hacer posible que las personas puedan mantenerse a sí mismas, que tengan un poco más de tranquilidad con sus finanzas”, dijo Davis. Añadió que no es fácil vivir en una de las ciudades más caras del país y la ayuda económica que ofrecería GIFT sería como una especie de salvavidas para cubrir algunos gastos esenciales.\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"GIFT\">\u003c/a>¿Quién puede aplicar a GIFT?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Para poder solicitar GIFT, debe:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Tener 18 años o más\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>No percibir ingresos superiores a $600 dólares al mes\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Vivir en la ciudad de San Francisco\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Hablar con los organizadores de GIFT cada tres meses durante el programa para llenar una encuesta\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Debe de completar y entregar su solicitud \u003cstrong>antes de la fecha límite del 15 de diciembre\u003c/strong>. Recuerde que sólo se seleccionarán 55 beneficiarios para este programa piloto.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dado que la financiación procede de la ciudad de San Francisco, sólo los residentes de San Francisco podrán participar en el programa, y aquellos participantes inscritos si abandonan la ciudad también tendrán que abandonar el programa GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"impuestos\">\u003c/a>¿Cómo incluyo GIFT en mis impuestos o en otras prestaciones que esté recibiendo?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Tendrá que declarar a la Oficina de Impuestos sobre la Renta (IRS, por sus siglas en inglés) lo que ha recibido de GIFT cuando presente sus impuestos del 2023 en el 2024.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Otros organismos públicos, como la Administración del Seguro Social, también considerarán el GIFT como un ingreso, lo que podría afectar a otras prestaciones, como la Seguridad de Ingreso Suplementario (SSI por sus siglas en inglés).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“A veces se tarda décadas en conseguir la SSI y cuando por fin se recibe, sólo se puede ganar hasta cierto punto”, dijo Samuel Favela, asociado del programa en el Distrito Transgénero. El SSI y otros programas de ayuda del gobierno, como CalFresh, tienen estrictos límites de ingresos. Favela señala la posibilidad de que alguien pueda perder estas prestaciones si supera el límite de ingresos al recibir los fondos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si es elegido para participar en GIFT y también recibe prestaciones estatales como CalFresh o CalWorks, Favela recomienda notificar a ese organismo de la existencia de GIFT antes de empezar a recibir dinero. “Si no lo comunica, le pasarán factura al final del programa”, dice Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sin embargo, Favela afirma que el equipo del Distrito Transexual se compromete a ayudar a la gente en estas situaciones delicadas, ya que la organización cree que alguien no debería tener que elegir entre dos salvavidas cuando se trata de sobrevivir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hay exenciones a las que pueden acogerse y vamos a trabajar con ellos en eso también”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero lo más importante que puede hacer si recibe prestaciones del gobierno y está avanzando en el proceso de solicitud de GIFT es ser lo más transparente posible, tanto con los organizadores de GIFT, como con los organismos gubernamentales. “Su trabajador social es probablemente la mejor persona con la que debe ponerse en contacto, y quien también puede ponerse en contacto con nosotros”, añadió Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Trabajo de manera informal. ¿Qué puedo hacer para demostrar mis ingresos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>En la página web de GIFT puede \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">cargar diversos documentos para acompañar su solicitud\u003c/a> y comprobar sus ingresos. Puede incluir formularios W-2, talones de pago o incluso extractos bancarios. Las personas que sólo reciben ingresos del SSI o del SSDI pueden compartir las cartas que reciben de la Administración del Seguro Social confirmando que reciben estas prestaciones. También se aceptan las cartas de ayuda financiera de universidades o escuelas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero si trabaja de manera informal y no dispone de documentación que acredite sus ingresos, puede presentar una carta de autocertificación. Este \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_33ab30018f9c4a53bc75aee82f583dcb.pdf\">formulario de declaración de ingresos está disponible en PDF\u003c/a> en el sitio web de GIFT, junto con otros documentos para descargar y utilizar, y le permite compartir cuántos ingresos tiene al mes, cuántas personas viven con usted y por qué no puede aportar pruebas de sus ingresos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Confiamos en que la gente nos facilite la información correcta y tenga buenas intenciones”, explica Favela, quien añade que son muy comprensivos con el hecho de que la gente tenga muchas formas distintas de ganarse la visa. “Así que si quieren hacernos saber que son trabajadores sexuales, y esto es lo que ganan al mes, sólo tienen que escribir un correo electrónico y llenar esa sección de esa manera”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11934956\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11934956\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">En el sitio web de GIFT, puede subir una serie de documentos para acompañar su solicitud y comprobar cuánto gana. \u003ccite>(Cottonbro/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"vivienda\">\u003c/a>Mi situación de vivienda es complicada, o estoy entre dos alojamientos en este momento. ¿Cómo puedo demostrar que vivo en San Francisco?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Al igual que para verificar sus ingresos, hay muchas formas de confirmar que vive actualmente en San Francisco. Si no tiene ningún recibo de PG&E o de una compañía telefónica que incluya su nombre y dirección actual, puede pedir a un trabajador social o proveedor de atención sanitaria o agencia con la que esté trabajando, que escriba una carta que confirme que vive en la ciudad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si se aloja en un albergue, puede solicitar una carta de verificación a la gerencia del albergue. Pero si eso tampoco es una opción, puede llenar otro \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_e495477cb1df47319fab57e3b20f314e.pdf\">formulario de autocertificación de residencia (PDF) disponible en el sitio web de GIFT\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En el formulario de declaración de residencia, tendrá que confirmar que actualmente no tiene vivienda y que no hay ningún organismo u organización que pueda facilitarle una carta que confirme su situación de alojamiento. Una vez completado, \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">puede subirlo al portal en línea con el resto de sus documentos\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"encuestas\">\u003c/a>¿Qué hay de esas encuestas de seguimiento que los participantes en GIFT tienen que hacer cada tres meses?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, asociada ejecutiva del Distrito Transgénero, confirma que el objetivo de estos controles es saber cómo les va a la gente desde que inició el programa. “No estamos vigilando cómo gastan el dinero”, afirma Davis. “Pero nos gustaría saber cómo está mejorando su vida”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La clínica Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero participarán en estos seguimientos, los cuales también verán si han cambiado las rutinas diarias y las responsabilidades de los participantes. Por ejemplo, explica Davis, “¿Están recibiendo la atención de salud mental que necesitan? ¿Pueden pagar la comida? ¿Pueden pagar el seguro? ¿Pueden acudir a las citas con el médico o conseguir recetas médicas?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En estas conversaciones, si un participante dice que necesita servicios de atención de salud, se le puede poner en contacto con los Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin para que reciba tratamiento. Algunos de estos datos también se compartirán con la Oficina de Iniciativas Transgénero del Ayuntamiento. Sin embargo, el equipo del Distrito Transgénero aclaró que estos datos se utilizarán para comprender mejor el impacto del programa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También es importante mencionar que las agencias de la ciudad no comparten información sobre el estatus migratorio de nadie con las agencias federales.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Puedo participar en este programa si estoy indocumentado?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sí, y no necesita un número del Seguro Social para recibir los ingresos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Los organizadores dicen que las personas hispanohablantes monolingües, y los inmigrantes indocumentados tienen prioridad de inscripción.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Cómo se elegirá exactamente a los participantes?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>El centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero seleccionarán a los participantes al azar. Y en cuanto al público trans de San Francisco al que se quiere llegar, el programa todavía tiene “datos demográficos que estamos tratando de concretar”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“El 60% de las personas que vamos a intentar que participen en el programa son personas trans negras”, explicaron.\u003c/strong> “Así que en esa selección al azar, al menos el 60% van a ser [personas trans negras]”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Los clasificaremos según la categoría en la que se encuentren y luego simplemente haremos una selección al azar dentro de cada categoría”, añadió Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"puedo\">\u003c/a>¿Dónde puedo dirigirme?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">Dado que la solicitud GIFT sólo está disponible en línea\u003c/a>, puede resultar difícil presentarla para las personas que no tienen acceso regular a una computadora o una conexión estable a Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para ofrecer un asesoramiento más personalizado, el equipo del centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin está aceptando ayudar a personas interesadas sin cita previa a presentar su solicitud, o que tengan preguntas al respecto. Puede hablar en persona con el equipo en la clínica ubicada en el 1735 de la calle Mission, cerca de las líneas 14 y 49 de Muni. También puede llamarles al (415) 565-7667.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis, del Distrito Transgénero, también recomienda que acuda a su trabajador social si lo tiene. Si usted o alguien que usted conoce necesita más ayuda en español, Davis recomienda contactar a \u003ca href=\"https://ellaparatranslatinas.org/es/home\">El/La Para TransLatinas\u003c/a>, una organización que se centra en servir y abogar por las personas trans Latinx en el Área de la Bahía. Puede ponerse en contacto llamando al (415) 864-7278.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>¿Quiere solicitar GIFT pero se siente inseguro o incluso nervioso por hacerlo?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No tenga dudas”, exhorta Davis, añadiendo que, al tratarse de un programa piloto, este puede influir en lo que se pueda hacer en San Francisco, y potencialmente otras ciudades más.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Por el momento, es una oportunidad única en la vida, y esto ayudará a muchas más personas trans, jóvenes trans y personas mayores trans en el futuro”, dijo.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Este artículo fue traducido por la periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/mpena/\">María Peña\u003c/a> y editado por el periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/ccabreralomeli\">Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Los fondos se entregarán a los participantes a través de una tarjeta Visa de débito que el programa recargará con la misma cantidad cada mes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, asociada ejecutiva del Distrito Transgénero, señala que muchas personas trans de San Francisco siguen teniendo dificultades para hacer alcanzar el dinero debido a la situación económica, pero también a causa de la intolerancia y discriminación.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dice que algunas personas trans también se enfrentan a la falta de hogar y a la inseguridad de la vivienda después de haber sido expulsadas por la familia.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Este programa propone mejorar este tipo de situación, hacer posible que las personas puedan mantenerse a sí mismas, que tengan un poco más de tranquilidad con sus finanzas”, dijo Davis. Añadió que no es fácil vivir en una de las ciudades más caras del país y la ayuda económica que ofrecería GIFT sería como una especie de salvavidas para cubrir algunos gastos esenciales.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

El SSI y otros programas de ayuda del gobierno, como CalFresh, tienen estrictos límites de ingresos. Favela señala la posibilidad de que alguien pueda perder estas prestaciones si supera el límite de ingresos al recibir los fondos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si es elegido para participar en GIFT y también recibe prestaciones estatales como CalFresh o CalWorks, Favela recomienda notificar a ese organismo de la existencia de GIFT antes de empezar a recibir dinero. “Si no lo comunica, le pasarán factura al final del programa”, dice Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sin embargo, Favela afirma que el equipo del Distrito Transexual se compromete a ayudar a la gente en estas situaciones delicadas, ya que la organización cree que alguien no debería tener que elegir entre dos salvavidas cuando se trata de sobrevivir.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Hay exenciones a las que pueden acogerse y vamos a trabajar con ellos en eso también”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero lo más importante que puede hacer si recibe prestaciones del gobierno y está avanzando en el proceso de solicitud de GIFT es ser lo más transparente posible, tanto con los organizadores de GIFT, como con los organismos gubernamentales. “Su trabajador social es probablemente la mejor persona con la que debe ponerse en contacto, y quien también puede ponerse en contacto con nosotros”, añadió Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Trabajo de manera informal. ¿Qué puedo hacer para demostrar mis ingresos?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>En la página web de GIFT puede \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">cargar diversos documentos para acompañar su solicitud\u003c/a> y comprobar sus ingresos. Puede incluir formularios W-2, talones de pago o incluso extractos bancarios. Las personas que sólo reciben ingresos del SSI o del SSDI pueden compartir las cartas que reciben de la Administración del Seguro Social confirmando que reciben estas prestaciones. También se aceptan las cartas de ayuda financiera de universidades o escuelas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero si trabaja de manera informal y no dispone de documentación que acredite sus ingresos, puede presentar una carta de autocertificación. Este \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_33ab30018f9c4a53bc75aee82f583dcb.pdf\">formulario de declaración de ingresos está disponible en PDF\u003c/a> en el sitio web de GIFT, junto con otros documentos para descargar y utilizar, y le permite compartir cuántos ingresos tiene al mes, cuántas personas viven con usted y por qué no puede aportar pruebas de sus ingresos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Confiamos en que la gente nos facilite la información correcta y tenga buenas intenciones”, explica Favela, quien añade que son muy comprensivos con el hecho de que la gente tenga muchas formas distintas de ganarse la visa. “Así que si quieren hacernos saber que son trabajadores sexuales, y esto es lo que ganan al mes, sólo tienen que escribir un correo electrónico y llenar esa sección de esa manera”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11934956\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11934956\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/12/HAND-ON-LAPTOP-ON-DESK-NEXT-TO-WINDOW-HERE-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">En el sitio web de GIFT, puede subir una serie de documentos para acompañar su solicitud y comprobar cuánto gana. \u003ccite>(Cottonbro/Pexels)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"vivienda\">\u003c/a>Mi situación de vivienda es complicada, o estoy entre dos alojamientos en este momento. ¿Cómo puedo demostrar que vivo en San Francisco?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Al igual que para verificar sus ingresos, hay muchas formas de confirmar que vive actualmente en San Francisco. Si no tiene ningún recibo de PG&E o de una compañía telefónica que incluya su nombre y dirección actual, puede pedir a un trabajador social o proveedor de atención sanitaria o agencia con la que esté trabajando, que escriba una carta que confirme que vive en la ciudad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Si se aloja en un albergue, puede solicitar una carta de verificación a la gerencia del albergue. Pero si eso tampoco es una opción, puede llenar otro \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/_files/ugd/40a234_e495477cb1df47319fab57e3b20f314e.pdf\">formulario de autocertificación de residencia (PDF) disponible en el sitio web de GIFT\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En el formulario de declaración de residencia, tendrá que confirmar que actualmente no tiene vivienda y que no hay ningún organismo u organización que pueda facilitarle una carta que confirme su situación de alojamiento. Una vez completado, \u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">puede subirlo al portal en línea con el resto de sus documentos\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"encuestas\">\u003c/a>¿Qué hay de esas encuestas de seguimiento que los participantes en GIFT tienen que hacer cada tres meses?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Aubrey Davis, asociada ejecutiva del Distrito Transgénero, confirma que el objetivo de estos controles es saber cómo les va a la gente desde que inició el programa. “No estamos vigilando cómo gastan el dinero”, afirma Davis. “Pero nos gustaría saber cómo está mejorando su vida”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La clínica Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero participarán en estos seguimientos, los cuales también verán si han cambiado las rutinas diarias y las responsabilidades de los participantes. Por ejemplo, explica Davis, “¿Están recibiendo la atención de salud mental que necesitan? ¿Pueden pagar la comida? ¿Pueden pagar el seguro? ¿Pueden acudir a las citas con el médico o conseguir recetas médicas?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>En estas conversaciones, si un participante dice que necesita servicios de atención de salud, se le puede poner en contacto con los Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin para que reciba tratamiento. Algunos de estos datos también se compartirán con la Oficina de Iniciativas Transgénero del Ayuntamiento. Sin embargo, el equipo del Distrito Transgénero aclaró que estos datos se utilizarán para comprender mejor el impacto del programa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>También es importante mencionar que las agencias de la ciudad no comparten información sobre el estatus migratorio de nadie con las agencias federales.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Puedo participar en este programa si estoy indocumentado?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Sí, y no necesita un número del Seguro Social para recibir los ingresos de GIFT.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Los organizadores dicen que las personas hispanohablantes monolingües, y los inmigrantes indocumentados tienen prioridad de inscripción.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>¿Cómo se elegirá exactamente a los participantes?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>El centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin y el Distrito Transgénero seleccionarán a los participantes al azar. Y en cuanto al público trans de San Francisco al que se quiere llegar, el programa todavía tiene “datos demográficos que estamos tratando de concretar”, dijo Favela.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>“El 60% de las personas que vamos a intentar que participen en el programa son personas trans negras”, explicaron.\u003c/strong> “Así que en esa selección al azar, al menos el 60% van a ser [personas trans negras]”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Los clasificaremos según la categoría en la que se encuentren y luego simplemente haremos una selección al azar dentro de cada categoría”, añadió Davis.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>\u003ca id=\"puedo\">\u003c/a>¿Dónde puedo dirigirme?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.giftincome.org/es/apply\">Dado que la solicitud GIFT sólo está disponible en línea\u003c/a>, puede resultar difícil presentarla para las personas que no tienen acceso regular a una computadora o una conexión estable a Internet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para ofrecer un asesoramiento más personalizado, el equipo del centro de Servicios Comunitarios de Salud Lyon-Martin está aceptando ayudar a personas interesadas sin cita previa a presentar su solicitud, o que tengan preguntas al respecto. Puede hablar en persona con el equipo en la clínica ubicada en el 1735 de la calle Mission, cerca de las líneas 14 y 49 de Muni. También puede llamarles al (415) 565-7667.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis, del Distrito Transgénero, también recomienda que acuda a su trabajador social si lo tiene. Si usted o alguien que usted conoce necesita más ayuda en español, Davis recomienda contactar a \u003ca href=\"https://ellaparatranslatinas.org/es/home\">El/La Para TransLatinas\u003c/a>, una organización que se centra en servir y abogar por las personas trans Latinx en el Área de la Bahía. Puede ponerse en contacto llamando al (415) 864-7278.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>¿Quiere solicitar GIFT pero se siente inseguro o incluso nervioso por hacerlo?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“No tenga dudas”, exhorta Davis, añadiendo que, al tratarse de un programa piloto, este puede influir en lo que se pueda hacer en San Francisco, y potencialmente otras ciudades más.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Por el momento, es una oportunidad única en la vida, y esto ayudará a muchas más personas trans, jóvenes trans y personas mayores trans en el futuro”, dijo.\u003c/p>\n\u003chr>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Este artículo fue traducido por la periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/mpena/\">María Peña\u003c/a> y editado por el periodista \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/author/ccabreralomeli\">Carlos Cabrera-Lomelí\u003c/a>.\u003c/em>\u003cbr>\n\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In Washington, D.C., he was impressed with the metro system, which took him most places he wanted to go. Same thing in many European cities. So, when he moved to the Bay Area and started riding BART, he was a little confused. Look at any BART map and you’ll see lines converging from Contra Costa and Alameda counties on a single corridor through the Transbay Tube across San Francisco and down the Peninsula to San Francisco International Airport and Millbrae.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Metros and subways in European cities tend to be spread out, hitting every city corner,” Ziad said. “Why do four of the five BART lines (red, yellow, green, blue) go all the way from West Oakland to Daly City? It seems like a mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ziad submitted his question to Bay Curious and it won \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/podcasts/baycurious/\">a voting round\u003c/a>, so a lot of people have been wondering why BART was designed this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[baycuriouspodcastinfo]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, what one person sees as a mistake can be another’s very deliberate strategy. And in this case, BART’s route is the product of what public officials, business interests and planners in the 1950s thought a rapid transit system should be. They planned BART as a system with a single main line on its route down to the Peninsula. (Yes, BART was originally envisioned as a system that would also run west through northern and parts of western San Francisco to the Golden Gate Bridge and beyond, but that plan died in 1962 when Marin County officials opted out of the system.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The growing dominance of the automobile — and the massive highway construction that went along with it — lay behind the choice of a main line system whose central mission was to get commuters and shoppers from outlying areas to and from downtown San Francisco and Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/23314106/redundancy-in-public-transit-1980-adler-chapter-ix.pdf\">1955 status report (PDF)\u003c/a> prepared for the commission overseeing BART planning argued that the only way a regional rapid transit system would persuade drivers to get out of their cars was if service was fast, frequent and comfortable. Patronage would depend on having widely spaced stations, each with a huge parking lot or easy bus access.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"More Bay Curious BART Episodes\" link1=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/why-are-bart-trains-so-loud/id1172473406?i=1000392016987&ign-itscg=30200S&ign-itsct=podcast_box,Why Are BART Trains So Loud?\" link2=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/youre-really-really-curious-about-bart/id1172473406?i=1000464113096&ign-itscg=30200S&ign-itsct=podcast_box,You're Really Really Curious About BART\"]Planners contrasted that with what they termed a “neighborhood system,” one that would be within walking distance of most Bay Area homes, and which would require lots of train lines and lots of stops. While that kind of service might be accessible, the frequency of stops and longer waits between trains would mean it was slower — and thus unlikely to woo drivers who were believed to value speed and personal convenience above all.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The foregoing considerations compel in our minds a recommendation for a main line, trunk system, even without taking into account its much lower capital and operating costs as compared to a neighborhood system,” the 1955 memo said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11932714\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-scaled.jpg\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11932714\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-800x997.jpg\" alt=\"A 1970 aerial view of freeway and rapid transit construction in Oakland, California.\" width=\"800\" height=\"997\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-800x997.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-1020x1271.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-160x199.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-1233x1536.jpg 1233w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-1644x2048.jpg 1644w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/GettyImages-1318535223-1920x2392.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Aerial view of the Grove-Shafter Freeway and Bay Area Rapid Transit MacArthur Station construction on Aug. 29, 1970, in Oakland. \u003ccite>(Russ Reed, from plane flown by Warren Boggess/MediaNews Group-Oakland Tribune via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Now, one shouldn’t forget that there was — and is — transit that ties into BART on both sides of the bay. In San Francisco, we’re talking about Muni, mostly. And in the East Bay, we’re talking about AC Transit. If you add those network maps to the rather skeletal BART system, transit looks much more robust — though yes, you’re required to jump from one operator to another to get to your destination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a couple of important historical notes to touch upon regarding Muni and the possibility of more rapid transit in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>San Francisco rejects new subway lines\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>City officials had started touting the possibility of citywide subway service as far back as the first decade of the 20th century. Those initiatives were moved to the back burner several times — by “no” votes from the electorate, World War II and, later, by the belief that with BART on the way, such a system might be redundant. The last serious attempt to turn that idea into reality came in 1966.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition B on the city’s November ballot that year included a $96.5 million bond issue that would help pay for construction of three new rapid transit subways across the city. The new routes — one to the Richmond District, one to the Sunset, one to the San Francisco State neighborhood by way of Twin Peaks — would take advantage of BART’s two-level subway tunnel under Market Street and make it possible to reach downtown in 20 minutes from anywhere along the line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure, which would require tax increases, needed a two-thirds vote to pass. It garnered only a 57% “yes” vote. The plan was never revived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11932710\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM.png\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11932710\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-800x613.png\" alt=\"A 1966 newspaper map showing proposed routes for San Francisco rapid transit.\" width=\"800\" height=\"613\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-800x613.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-1020x782.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-160x123.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-1536x1177.png 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM.png 1730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A map the San Francisco Examiner printed just before the November 1966 vote on a bond issue to fund a Muni rapid transit network in San Francisco. The caption read: “Here’s a look at the overall transit plan showing the six major high-speed subways and bus lines. Routes 1, 4 and 6 would be financed by Proposition B. Passage of Proposition B at the Nov. 8 elections qualify the Muni for federal aid to build No. 2 and No. 2. BART is building No. 5.” \u003ccite>(San Francisco Examiner via Newspapers.com)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Jason Henderson, a San Francisco State University professor of geography who has written extensively on the city’s transportation politics, said in his 2013 book “\u003ca href=\"https://geog.sfsu.edu/publication/street-fight-politics-mobility-san-francisco\">Street Fight\u003c/a>” that the measure failed for a variety of reasons: a distaste for higher taxes and fear that the new subways would spur unwanted dense development. Voters were unconvinced the new transit plan, which would scrap the existing J, K, L, M and N streetcar lines, would be an improvement on Muni’s existing network. Henderson wrote:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Some neighborhood groups were opposed to the proposal because the plan included restructuring of the bus routes so that the buses fed into the rapid transit trunk lines. … Passengers’ actual travel times would be higher with the transfer and restructuring of routes. The transit plan of 1966 discontinued almost all electric trolley bus service, replacing it with a diesel bus fleet. Some neighborhood groups opposed the proposal on these grounds because in San Francisco, with its many hills, diesel buses performed especially poorly and were extremely noisy compared to electric buses.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>But that’s the past.

In Washington, D.C., he was impressed with the metro system, which took him most places he wanted to go. Same thing in many European cities. So, when he moved to the Bay Area and started riding BART, he was a little confused. Look at any BART map and you’ll see lines converging from Contra Costa and Alameda counties on a single corridor through the Transbay Tube across San Francisco and down the Peninsula to San Francisco International Airport and Millbrae.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Metros and subways in European cities tend to be spread out, hitting every city corner,” Ziad said. “Why do four of the five BART lines (red, yellow, green, blue) go all the way from West Oakland to Daly City? It seems like a mistake.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ziad submitted his question to Bay Curious and it won \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/podcasts/baycurious/\">a voting round\u003c/a>, so a lot of people have been wondering why BART was designed this way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003caside class=\"alignleft utils-parseShortcode-shortcodes-__bayCuriousPodcastShortcode__bayCurious\">\u003cimg src=https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/bayCuriousLogo.png alt=\"Bay Curious Podcast\" loading=\"lazy\" />\n \u003ca href=\"/news/series/baycurious\">Bay Curious\u003c/a> is a podcast that answers your questions about the Bay Area.\n Subscribe on \u003ca href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/bay-curious/id1172473406\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Apple Podcasts\u003c/a>,\n \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/podcasts/500557090/bay-curious\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">NPR One\u003c/a> or your favorite podcast platform.\u003c/aside>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, what one person sees as a mistake can be another’s very deliberate strategy. And in this case, BART’s route is the product of what public officials, business interests and planners in the 1950s thought a rapid transit system should be. They planned BART as a system with a single main line on its route down to the Peninsula. (Yes, BART was originally envisioned as a system that would also run west through northern and parts of western San Francisco to the Golden Gate Bridge and beyond, but that plan died in 1962 when Marin County officials opted out of the system.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In San Francisco, we’re talking about Muni, mostly. And in the East Bay, we’re talking about AC Transit. If you add those network maps to the rather skeletal BART system, transit looks much more robust — though yes, you’re required to jump from one operator to another to get to your destination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a couple of important historical notes to touch upon regarding Muni and the possibility of more rapid transit in San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>San Francisco rejects new subway lines\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>City officials had started touting the possibility of citywide subway service as far back as the first decade of the 20th century. Those initiatives were moved to the back burner several times — by “no” votes from the electorate, World War II and, later, by the belief that with BART on the way, such a system might be redundant. The last serious attempt to turn that idea into reality came in 1966.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition B on the city’s November ballot that year included a $96.5 million bond issue that would help pay for construction of three new rapid transit subways across the city. The new routes — one to the Richmond District, one to the Sunset, one to the San Francisco State neighborhood by way of Twin Peaks — would take advantage of BART’s two-level subway tunnel under Market Street and make it possible to reach downtown in 20 minutes from anywhere along the line.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure, which would require tax increases, needed a two-thirds vote to pass. It garnered only a 57% “yes” vote. The plan was never revived.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11932710\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM.png\">\u003cimg decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11932710\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-800x613.png\" alt=\"A 1966 newspaper map showing proposed routes for San Francisco rapid transit.\" width=\"800\" height=\"613\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-800x613.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-1020x782.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-160x123.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM-1536x1177.png 1536w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/Screen-Shot-2022-11-17-at-3.35.12-PM.png 1730w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A map the San Francisco Examiner printed just before the November 1966 vote on a bond issue to fund a Muni rapid transit network in San Francisco.

Voters were unconvinced the new transit plan, which would scrap the existing J, K, L, M and N streetcar lines, would be an improvement on Muni’s existing network. Henderson wrote:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“Some neighborhood groups were opposed to the proposal because the plan included restructuring of the bus routes so that the buses fed into the rapid transit trunk lines. … Passengers’ actual travel times would be higher with the transfer and restructuring of routes. The transit plan of 1966 discontinued almost all electric trolley bus service, replacing it with a diesel bus fleet. Some neighborhood groups opposed the proposal on these grounds because in San Francisco, with its many hills, diesel buses performed especially poorly and were extremely noisy compared to electric buses.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>But that’s the past.

I congratulate Pamela Price on becoming Alameda County’s first-ever African American District Attorney. I look forward to working with Pamela in her transition to District Attorney.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price, a progressive civil-rights attorney, had over 53% of the vote in the latest results Saturday, and Wiley — the county’s chief assistant district attorney under retiring DA Nancy O'Malley — had just under 47%, a difference of nearly 27,000 votes. Price had already \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/PPriceCares/status/1593818402992308225\">declared herself the victor on Friday\u003c/a> with a tweet that said “WE DID IT!”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hotly contested race reflected two starkly different approaches to crime, which Alameda County voters consistently named a top priority — the increase in gun violence in Oakland, in particular — during the months leading up to the election. Price's win seems to reflect East Bay voters' appetite for progressive criminal justice reform: Her campaign offered voters a vision for a district attorney who proposed bold stances to eliminate racial inequity in the criminal legal system and provide alternatives to incarceration focused on healing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wiley, a career prosecutor, offered a more moderate approach, calling for flexibility and arguing that pretrial detention and life-without-parole sentencing — things that Price spoke out against using — are sometimes necessary to protect public safety. Among other campaign promises, Wiley proposed to focus his office's work on what he called \"the 2,000 repeat offenders who commit the majority of crime in Alameda County,\" and increasing referrals from the court system to the county's drug and mental health care treatment programs.

He also had the support of local and state district attorneys’ associations and police and sheriffs’ associations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Wiley's campaign often took aim at his competitor’s lack of prosecutorial and managerial experience. Price’s detractors were also quick to draw parallels between her and San Francisco’s recently recalled former District Attorney Chesa Boudin — including at Wiley's election night party.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The Chesa Boudin experiment was tried in San Francisco and it failed,\" Deputy District Attorney Butch Ford told the crowd, referring to the former DA across the bay whose tenure was marked by efforts to end cash bail, reduce jail time, and criminally charge police accused of misconduct. Ford continued, saying that Wiley \"made it real clear he'd be damned that the 'Pamela Price experiment' be tried here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price shares Boudin's opposition to cash bail and to charging youths as adults, put forth ambitious plans to combat sex trafficking, and sought to expand the role the DA plays in advocating for mental health care services and affordable housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price’s campaign, her second for Alameda DA after an unsuccessful run in 2018, was widely endorsed by local Democratic clubs, progressive labor unions and justice reform advocacy groups including Oakland’s Anti Police-Terror Project and the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11931593\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1616px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11931593 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/IMG_0519.jpg\" alt=\"A Black woman with long, curly black hair dressed in a purple sequin dress smiles among people smiling at her.\" width=\"1616\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/IMG_0519.jpg 1616w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/IMG_0519-800x535.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/IMG_0519-1020x682.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/IMG_0519-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/IMG_0519-1536x1027.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1616px) 100vw, 1616px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alameda county district attorney candidate Pamela Price greets guests at her election night party at Q's Lounge in Oakland on Nov. 8, 2022. \u003ccite>(Aryk Copley/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Unsurprisingly, campaign funding flowed to the candidates from different sides of the courtroom. Current attorneys and inspectors for the Alameda County district attorney’s office contributed heavily to Wiley’s campaign, both individually and collectively, including a $75,000 donation from the Alameda County Prosecutors’ Association. Over the course of his two-year campaign, Wiley raised more than $1 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price received numerous individual donations from attorneys in the Alameda County Public Defender’s office. Price began fundraising for her 2022 campaign in 2018, and though she pulled in money more slowly, her fundraising for this election surpassed the $1 million mark as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, the California Correctional Peace Officers Association and the Fremont Police Department funded attack ads through the Golden State Communities Project targeting Price and hyperbolizing about crime in the Bay Area, which, though perhaps unsolicited by Wiley, certainly benefited him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Price will be the first Black district attorney in Alameda County history. Aside from gun violence in Oakland, she inherits issues such as accusations of misconduct within the current DA’s office and a growing number of deaths at the county jail, where at least two people have died in the last four weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

One group serving unhoused people is in the dark over whether a $175,000 program to help families learn digital skills will move forward.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While the total amount Twitter donates to local nonprofits currently isn’t known, \u003ca href=\"https://blog.twitter.com/en_us/a/2015/our-commitment-to-san-francisco\">a 2015 Twitter blog post projected donations of more than $900,000 annually by 2018\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twitter has publicly committed to being a good neighbor in San Francisco, concentrating both philanthropy and volunteerism on people who live in, and groups serving, the Tenderloin and South of Market neighborhoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Colleen Murakami, chief development officer of Swords to Plowshares, said their organization has the financial means to take the $10,000 hit, \u003ca href=\"https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2022/11/08/2551246/0/en/Swords-to-Plowshares-Hosts-26th-Annual-Veterans-Day-Concert-Reception.html\">which was intended to help pay for a Veterans Day gala this week\u003c/a>.

San Francisco Mayor London Breed spoke at the event, and more than $400,000 was raised to \u003ca href=\"https://www.sfchronicle.com/sf/article/homeless-veterans-apartments-17575222.php\">further the organization’s efforts to house and comfort veterans, particularly unhoused veterans\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The next day, the organization received this email from a member of the Twitter for Good team describing an “indefinite pause”:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u003cem>I hope this email finds you well. I am so glad to hear that yesterday’s event went well. I wish I could have been with you all.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u003cem>I am very sorry to share that all Twitter philanthropic activities are paused indefinitely until the new leadership provides guidance.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px\">\u003cem>Unfortunately, this includes the $10K donation we were trying to process prior the official change of hands.

Happy Veterans Day.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In another email, Twitter referred to the action as a “cancellation notice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twitter did not return a request for comment, nor did they clarify whether the cessation of the $10,000 donation is temporary or permanent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.theverge.com/2022/11/4/23439790/elon-musk-twitter-layoffs-trust-and-safety-teams-severance\">Twitter has laid off most, if not all, of its communications team\u003c/a>, according to news reports. The philanthropy-focused Twitter for Good team itself may also be gone, save for its lead, according to multiple nonprofit organizations who have spoken to former employees.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twitter did not confirm those layoffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/TwitterForGood/status/1578209835350269953\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tesla founder Elon Musk completed his purchase of Twitter in late October to much fanfare and worry. While Musk promised to make Twitter a bastion of free speech, the platform was quickly met with mounting woes: wary advertisers backing away from the company, mass layoffs, and concern from President Joe Biden that Musk’s takeover is “worthy of being looked at” \u003ca href=\"https://sfstandard.com/business/musks-twitter-buyout-could-be-looked-at-as-national-security-risk-says-biden/\">as a national security risk\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while Twitter’s new boss has generated international ripples, the epicenter of the disruption is in San Francisco, where it is headquartered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of San Francisco’s most impoverished people live in the proverbial shadow of the Twitter building in the mid-Market neighborhood, and the neighborhoods around it. And now Musk’s new direction for the company may imperil funds meant to help them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Organizations tackling homelessness to those training marginalized youth in tech-sector skills have all been past recipients of Twitter help. These include Compass Family Services, Glide, Dev/Mission, Catholic Charities, Code Tenderloin, the Bay Area Video Coalition and the San Francisco General Hospital Foundation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/satanjeev/status/997531639327612929?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E997531639327612929%7Ctwgr%5E6c8761003561ed85fc5551c3ac4e13c194d04b26%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.glide.org%2Fdata-for-good-glide-and-twitter-team-up-on-a-skills-based-volunteering-journey%2F\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Swords to Plowshares’ Murakami is worried that other San Francisco groups may see their donations from Twitter evaporate, since the email sent to her organization from Twitter mentioned additional donations being affected, as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">“I’m concerned about all the other agreements that Twitter has with the community, particularly those in the Tenderloin and, you know, all the housing providers,” Murakami said. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Compass Family services is one such group. The mission of the more-than-100-year-old organization is to help unhoused and housing-insecure families, and with Twitter they did so through an annual “Twitter NeighborNest” program. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families have made over 17,000 visits to the program since 2015, according to Compass, learning technology skills like digital literacy in both English and Spanish. Child care was provided, and parents at risk of losing their housing were also taught how to search for much-needed housing online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was also a way for the technology workers of Twitter to reach out and interact with their neighbors, some of whom could use their help, said Madeleine Lemos, a spokesperson for Compass Family Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every Twitter employee that I’ve ever talked to after a volunteer event told me how much they loved getting to meet our families, getting to meet our children and getting to take part in that,” she said. “So in addition to just the actual tangible skills and technology access it gave our family, it really was a place of community for everyone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On hiatus since the pandemic, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.compass-sf.org/neighbornest\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Twitter NeighborNest\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> was slated to reopen next week. Now, the $175,000 program — not counting Twitter’s in-kind donations of a facility and staff volunteer hours — is in limbo. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Twitter staff who normally communicate with Compass Family Services on the program have apparently been laid off, and no one else has reached out in their place. Lemos said the organization has been grateful to Twitter for its past support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As of now, we aren’t really sure who to have a conversation with about the future of the nest,” Lemos said. “We are really hoping that this program can continue, that it can serve our families as both a space where they can have computer access, workforce development and job training, as well as child care. It’s a really wonderful space for our clients and our families to be able to use. And we’d love to see a good future with Twitter in the space.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added, “As of now, unfortunately, we don’t know what that future is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">At least one other recent event was affected: an annual holiday lunch for veterans held in mid-December, which has served the Tenderloin, Mission and South of Market areas for about 40 years. It’s co-hosted by Del Seymour, the noted executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.codetenderloin.org/team\">Code Tenderloin\u003c/a>, in conjunction with Swords to Plowshares.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twitter was set to pay for catering the event, but now that commitment is in question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s unfortunate,” Seymour said. “The holiday time is when veterans suffer the most, where all our unhoused people suffer the most. These vets look forward to the event. We do it every year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not every organization has seen a direct impact to their bottom line yet. Just a week ago, Leo Sosa, founder of Dev/Mission, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/TwitterForGood/status/1585738824830722048\">handed out laptops\u003c/a> to San Francisco families that were donated by Twitter for Good. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But that event was October 27, a week before the staffing layoffs, and subsequent maelstrom, hit Twitter.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11932066\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11932066 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k.jpg\" alt=\"A group of people almost all wearing black stand behind a long counter preparing food to serve. \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Twitter employees cater food to veterans at the Edwin M.

While Musk promised to make Twitter a bastion of free speech, the platform was quickly met with mounting woes: wary advertisers backing away from the company, mass layoffs, and concern from President Joe Biden that Musk’s takeover is “worthy of being looked at” \u003ca href=\"https://sfstandard.com/business/musks-twitter-buyout-could-be-looked-at-as-national-security-risk-says-biden/\">as a national security risk\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while Twitter’s new boss has generated international ripples, the epicenter of the disruption is in San Francisco, where it is headquartered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some of San Francisco’s most impoverished people live in the proverbial shadow of the Twitter building in the mid-Market neighborhood, and the neighborhoods around it.

The mission of the more-than-100-year-old organization is to help unhoused and housing-insecure families, and with Twitter they did so through an annual “Twitter NeighborNest” program. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Families have made over 17,000 visits to the program since 2015, according to Compass, learning technology skills like digital literacy in both English and Spanish. Child care was provided, and parents at risk of losing their housing were also taught how to search for much-needed housing online.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was also a way for the technology workers of Twitter to reach out and interact with their neighbors, some of whom could use their help, said Madeleine Lemos, a spokesperson for Compass Family Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Every Twitter employee that I’ve ever talked to after a volunteer event told me how much they loved getting to meet our families, getting to meet our children and getting to take part in that,” she said. “So in addition to just the actual tangible skills and technology access it gave our family, it really was a place of community for everyone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">On hiatus since the pandemic, \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.compass-sf.org/neighbornest\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Twitter NeighborNest\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> was slated to reopen next week. Now, the $175,000 program — not counting Twitter’s in-kind donations of a facility and staff volunteer hours — is in limbo. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Twitter staff who normally communicate with Compass Family Services on the program have apparently been laid off, and no one else has reached out in their place. Lemos said the organization has been grateful to Twitter for its past support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“As of now, we aren’t really sure who to have a conversation with about the future of the nest,” Lemos said. “We are really hoping that this program can continue, that it can serve our families as both a space where they can have computer access, workforce development and job training, as well as child care. It’s a really wonderful space for our clients and our families to be able to use. And we’d love to see a good future with Twitter in the space.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She added, “As of now, unfortunately, we don’t know what that future is.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">At least one other recent event was affected: an annual holiday lunch for veterans held in mid-December, which has served the Tenderloin, Mission and South of Market areas for about 40 years. It’s co-hosted by Del Seymour, the noted executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.codetenderloin.org/team\">Code Tenderloin\u003c/a>, in conjunction with Swords to Plowshares.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Twitter was set to pay for catering the event, but now that commitment is in question.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s unfortunate,” Seymour said. “The holiday time is when veterans suffer the most, where all our unhoused people suffer the most. These vets look forward to the event. We do it every year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not every organization has seen a direct impact to their bottom line yet. Just a week ago, Leo Sosa, founder of Dev/Mission, \u003ca href=\"https://twitter.com/TwitterForGood/status/1585738824830722048\">handed out laptops\u003c/a> to San Francisco families that were donated by Twitter for Good. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">But that event was October 27, a week before the staffing layoffs, and subsequent maelstrom, hit Twitter.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11932066\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-11932066 size-full\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k.jpg\" alt=\"A group of people almost all wearing black stand behind a long counter preparing food to serve. \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1280\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/52353533308_f8bb634a2b_k-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Twitter employees cater food to veterans at the Edwin M.

"content": "\u003cp>Earlier this week, after a brief rain in San Francisco’s Mission District, the sun appeared on Clarion Alley where a small team of women were brushing green paint on the top of a “Women, Life, Freedom” mural. The green, red and white of Iran’s flag served as the backdrop to the drawing of a woman cutting her ponytail with scissors — one of the many iconic images emerging from Iran in the past several weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the second of at least three planned murals in solidarity with Iran. The first was completed in Albany at the end of October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first mural in Albany shows a woman who is burning her headscarf, which is a symbol of oppression in Iran,” said Leva Zand, the executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.artogether.org/iranmurals/\">ARTogether\u003c/a>, a Bay Area nonprofit that uses arts for community building. Zand clarifies that when Iranian women burn their headscarves, they are not necessarily opposing the religious aspect, but rather what they see as an oppressive government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iranian people are calling for regime change following the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman who died in Iran after being arrested by Iranian morality police in mid-September for not properly wearing the hijab. Security forces, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/iran-middle-east-577c596775fb9a78d78107004d29d0f9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">including paramilitary volunteers with the Revolutionary Guard\u003c/a>, have violently cracked down on demonstrations, \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/iranian-protestors-clash-with-police-near-capital-more-deaths-reported\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">killing over 300 people and arresting more than 14,000\u003c/a>, according to human rights groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Artists in Iran also are under fire. Recently, family members of Iranian rapper Toomaj Salehi expressed concern for his health \u003ca href=\"https://www.rferl.org/a/iran-rapper-health-concerns-arrest-prison-torture/32112464.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">after he was arrested during ongoing protests\u003c/a>. Salehi’s lyrics speak against corruption, poverty and the killing of protesters in Iran.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Clarion Alley mural was finished earlier this week, and at least one more mural is planned for Oakland. The Oakland mural will take up a larger wall; be a collaboration between Iranian and non-Iranian artists; and require additional fundraising — so far, ARTogether has raised $1,500 of their goal of $15,000 for the final mural.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zand says the mural series has two main goals: raising awareness about what’s happening in Iran, and showing solidarity with Iranians inside the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just heartwarming to me that my family and friends know that they are not alone and [that] we are thinking about them,” she said. Zand is a refugee from Iran, having left in 2003. She is also a scholar in feminist studies, so the fact that the current revolution is woman-led is important to her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe in [the] healing aspect of art and also [in the] community-building aspects of art,” she said.

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cp>Earlier this week, after a brief rain in San Francisco’s Mission District, the sun appeared on Clarion Alley where a small team of women were brushing green paint on the top of a “Women, Life, Freedom” mural. The green, red and white of Iran’s flag served as the backdrop to the drawing of a woman cutting her ponytail with scissors — one of the many iconic images emerging from Iran in the past several weeks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is the second of at least three planned murals in solidarity with Iran. The first was completed in Albany at the end of October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first mural in Albany shows a woman who is burning her headscarf, which is a symbol of oppression in Iran,” said Leva Zand, the executive director of \u003ca href=\"https://www.artogether.org/iranmurals/\">ARTogether\u003c/a>, a Bay Area nonprofit that uses arts for community building. Zand clarifies that when Iranian women burn their headscarves, they are not necessarily opposing the religious aspect, but rather what they see as an oppressive government.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Iranian people are calling for regime change following the death of Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman who died in Iran after being arrested by Iranian morality police in mid-September for not properly wearing the hijab. Security forces, \u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/iran-middle-east-577c596775fb9a78d78107004d29d0f9\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">including paramilitary volunteers with the Revolutionary Guard\u003c/a>, have violently cracked down on demonstrations, \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/iranian-protestors-clash-with-police-near-capital-more-deaths-reported\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">killing over 300 people and arresting more than 14,000\u003c/a>, according to human rights groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Artists in Iran also are under fire. Recently, family members of Iranian rapper Toomaj Salehi expressed concern for his health \u003ca href=\"https://www.rferl.org/a/iran-rapper-health-concerns-arrest-prison-torture/32112464.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">after he was arrested during ongoing protests\u003c/a>. Salehi’s lyrics speak against corruption, poverty and the killing of protesters in Iran.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Clarion Alley mural was finished earlier this week, and at least one more mural is planned for Oakland. The Oakland mural will take up a larger wall; be a collaboration between Iranian and non-Iranian artists; and require additional fundraising — so far, ARTogether has raised $1,500 of their goal of $15,000 for the final mural.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zand says the mural series has two main goals: raising awareness about what’s happening in Iran, and showing solidarity with Iranians inside the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s just heartwarming to me that my family and friends know that they are not alone and [that] we are thinking about them,” she said. Zand is a refugee from Iran, having left in 2003. She is also a scholar in feminist studies, so the fact that the current revolution is woman-led is important to her.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We believe in [the] healing aspect of art and also [in the] community-building aspects of art,” she said. ARTogether programs support refugee and immigrant artists in different stages of their careers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Zand sent pictures of the first mural to family in Iran, and received multiple messages from different people expressing thanks.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11931263\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11931263\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Two women paint a wall in Clarion Alley\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2022/11/RS59787_001_KQED_IranMuralClarionAlley_11022022-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Artists Roshanak Rahimi (left) and Farnaz Zabetian paint a mural in solidarity with the Iranian people on Clarion Alley, in San Francisco on Nov. 2, 2022. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The murals are already serving as a point of discussion and collaboration in San Francisco.
