His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

With her 14-year-old daughter in tow, she scans the still-sparsely furnished, open floor plan living room-kitchen, pointing out the glistening, stainless steel fixtures and laminate countertops.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a pretty decent-sized kitchen, considering it’s just two of us,” said Aquino. “I’m going for a farmhouse style.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A 31-year-old single mom with a limited income and no college degree, Aquino has done the seemingly impossible: become a homeowner in one of the most brutally expensive housing markets in the country.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And all she had to do was help build it herself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Julieta Aquino\"]‘It was never a thought in my mind to be a homeowner because that just seemed so far away.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This summer, Aquino and her daughter, Alexys, were among 11 low-income families who received keys to their new homes in Central Commons, a small development they all helped build over the past two years as participants in a \u003ca href=\"https://www.habitatebsv.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Habitat for Humanity East Bay-Silicon Valley\u003c/a> project. Like all future homeowners in the Habitat program, each family was required to put in 500 hours of so-called sweat equity, pounding nails and pouring concrete alongside project managers and volunteer work crews on the construction site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was my first time using a hammer,” Aquino admitted, noting the steep learning curve, one that exposed her to everything from fundamental carpentry skills to a basic understanding of California’s building codes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really neat because even while we were building, we were signing our names on the studs. [My daughter] would come around and just trace her hand, so she knew that behind the Sheetrock and the wall there was her imprint there. It’s cool to know that we left a little piece of us by building the home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aquino opens the sliding doors in the living room, stepping onto a small balcony with a table and gas grill. Below us, a construction crew is building a set of adjacent units, where 19 other families are expected to move within the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m really excited about my grill,” she says, amid the screeching of circular saws and nail guns. “I look forward to summer cookouts, and having breakfast out here. Brunches with family and friends.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11767831\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/DSC0871-e1565915186695.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11767831\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/DSC0871-e1565915186695.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1282\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Julieta Aquino in her bedroom at the new condo she owns in Fremont. \u003ccite>(Stephanie Lister/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>‘Definitely Within My Budget’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Although Habitat still owns the property that the development sits on, Aquino and her new neighbors are the legal owners of their individual units. In addition to their sweat equity hours, each family pays a 30-year low-interest mortgage guaranteed to never exceed 35% of their monthly income. That, along with no down payment and minimal closing costs, puts the prospect of homeownership squarely within the realm of possibility for low-income families like Aquino’s, who make between 30-80% of the area median income, in a region where average home prices easily bubble over $1 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely within my budget,” she said, noting that the program requires every participant to be on a monitored savings plan from the minute they’re selected. “I can assure you there is no other place in the Bay Area that I would be able to afford for the amount of money that I’m paying for this monthly. And it’s new. I helped build it. I helped create it. So it’s definitely a unique situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 33-year-old local Habitat program, which annually serves more than 1,200 residents in Alameda, Contra Costa and Santa Clara counties, is by no means a panacea for the Bay Area’s formidable housing crisis. But it does offer a glimmer of hope in what can be a grim and daunting housing landscape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aquino steps back into her new living room, closing the double-paned glass doors, which impressively mask the noise outside. She heads up a flight of stairs to Alexys’ bedroom, explaining that it’s the first real personal space her daughter has ever had.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Personal Space\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>For years after she and Alexys’ father split up, mother and daughter shared a room — and a bed — in her parents’ cramped two-bedroom house in San Jose, where Aquino’s brother, his girlfriend and their newborn son were also staying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought, ‘Oh, I’ll be there for a year or two and then we’ll move back out.’ But that didn’t happen as quickly as I thought it would,” she said. “It got really crowded at times. And so I was desperate to find a place for Alexys and I to just move out and have some quiet, some space.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stay at her parents’ house stretched to more than five years, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My initial thought was I want to go to the low-income housing areas for the rental market,” she added. “It was never a thought in my mind to be a homeowner because that just seemed so far away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alexys also has asthma and the house in San Jose had a serious mold problem, one that resulted in multiple trips to the emergency room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though Aquino’s bedroom is now just a few feet down the hall from her daughter’s, she admits that sleeping in separate rooms for the first time in years has been a harder transition than she’d anticipated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m so used to her just sleeping with me that it’s going to take some time for me to fully let go,” Aquino said. “But she’s really excited to have her own room and have her own space.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a different experience,” said Alexys, a thoughtful and soft-spoken teen, of her new room. “It’s your own space, your own privacy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite being only 30 miles north of San Jose, she added, she felt far away from her old life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I cried last night because I don’t get to see my friends,” she said. “But I think Fremont will be a good fresh start.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11768701\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11768701\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-800x522.jpg\" alt=\"Julieta Aquino's daughter Alexys in her new room, the first personal space she's ever had.\" width=\"800\" height=\"522\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-800x522.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-160x104.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-1020x666.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-1200x783.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Julieta Aquino’s daughter, Alexys, in her new room, the first personal space she’s ever had. \u003ccite>(Stephanie Lister/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Alexys had been too young to participate in the construction process but became a fixture on the work site over the last two years, decorating signs to place around the grounds while watching her mom help build their future home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was interesting because you pass by these buildings every day, and you never really know all the hard work that goes into them. So seeing it from behind the scenes, and how you have to put Sheetrock in certain areas and studs between the walls,” she said. “But it did take some time.

She immediately applied, but was initially rejected because of her poor credit history.

But the program offered some flexibility, allowing her friends and family to contribute up to 200 hours of the required time, and giving her the option to work some hours off the construction site, helping out with Habitat fundraising projects.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the next year, Aquino slowly fulfilled her work requirements, putting in time on weekday evenings after picking up her daughter from school, and spending every weekend getting her hands dirty at the construction site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So it was possible, but it was a lot,” she said. “I think as long as you really want it, you’ll find a way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation=\"Julieta Aquino\"]‘I think as long as you really want it, you’ll find a way.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But she acknowledges that if she hadn’t had the option to stay with her parents, she might not have been able to swing it.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>‘Blessed’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Aquino estimates that roughly 30% of the family and friends she grew up with in San Jose have now moved away. “Not just out of the Bay Area to go to Central Valley or to Sacramento,” she said. “No, it’s just moving completely out of state. … It’s completely impossible for them to own their own home in the Bay Area.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The region’s skyrocketing land and construction costs have also placed significant strain on the Habitat’s ability to find affordable building opportunities. The group, which relies on land partnerships with the cities it operates in, recently decided to offer the additional 19 units under construction in the Central Commons complex to families with more moderate incomes, earning 80-120% of the area median income, rather than the low-income families, like Aquino’s, who moved into the first 11 homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11767898\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1281\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut-800x534.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut-1020x681.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/RS37791__DSC0888-qut-1200x801.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These homes are still affordable, being sold significantly below market rate with mortgages affordable for a moderate-income family,” Patti Wang Cross, a spokeswoman for Habitat for Humanity East Bay-Silicon Valley, said in an email, noting that the organization’s decision was furthered by a recent decline in funding sources. “It’s a population of families severely impacted by the housing crisis, too often priced out of the homeownership market but seldom served by affordable housing initiatives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The new higher-income requirement is yet another reason Aquino is so quick to acknowledge how fortunate she and her daughter are. “Blessed” is an adjective she uses frequently to describe the situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I had my daughter when I was 16 and it’s been quite a journey,” she said. “And being able to say that I’m a homeowner at the age of 31, and she’s 14, I feel like I’ve come a long way. I definitely feel blessed, but I feel like everything that I do, I do because I want to set a good example for her and show her that although we might make different choices, or in this case sometimes not the wisest choices, I feel like we can still turn things around and make our future different.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The California Dream series is a statewide media collaboration of CalMatters, KPBS, KPCC, KQED and Capital Public Radio, with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the James Irvine Foundation and the College Futures Foundation.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11768052\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219-160x44.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Like all future homeowners in the Habitat program, each family was required to put in 500 hours of so-called sweat equity, pounding nails and pouring concrete alongside project managers and volunteer work crews on the construction site.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was my first time using a hammer,” Aquino admitted, noting the steep learning curve, one that exposed her to everything from fundamental carpentry skills to a basic understanding of California’s building codes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really neat because even while we were building, we were signing our names on the studs. [My daughter] would come around and just trace her hand, so she knew that behind the Sheetrock and the wall there was her imprint there. It’s cool to know that we left a little piece of us by building the home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aquino opens the sliding doors in the living room, stepping onto a small balcony with a table and gas grill. Below us, a construction crew is building a set of adjacent units, where 19 other families are expected to move within the year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m really excited about my grill,” she says, amid the screeching of circular saws and nail guns. “I look forward to summer cookouts, and having breakfast out here. Brunches with family and friends.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11767831\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 1920px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/DSC0871-e1565915186695.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-11767831\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/DSC0871-e1565915186695.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1282\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Julieta Aquino in her bedroom at the new condo she owns in Fremont. \u003ccite>(Stephanie Lister/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>‘Definitely Within My Budget’\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Although Habitat still owns the property that the development sits on, Aquino and her new neighbors are the legal owners of their individual units. In addition to their sweat equity hours, each family pays a 30-year low-interest mortgage guaranteed to never exceed 35% of their monthly income. That, along with no down payment and minimal closing costs, puts the prospect of homeownership squarely within the realm of possibility for low-income families like Aquino’s, who make between 30-80% of the area median income, in a region where average home prices easily bubble over $1 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s definitely within my budget,” she said, noting that the program requires every participant to be on a monitored savings plan from the minute they’re selected. “I can assure you there is no other place in the Bay Area that I would be able to afford for the amount of money that I’m paying for this monthly. And it’s new. I helped build it. I helped create it. So it’s definitely a unique situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 33-year-old local Habitat program, which annually serves more than 1,200 residents in Alameda, Contra Costa and Santa Clara counties, is by no means a panacea for the Bay Area’s formidable housing crisis. But it does offer a glimmer of hope in what can be a grim and daunting housing landscape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Aquino steps back into her new living room, closing the double-paned glass doors, which impressively mask the noise outside. She heads up a flight of stairs to Alexys’ bedroom, explaining that it’s the first real personal space her daughter has ever had.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Personal Space\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>For years after she and Alexys’ father split up, mother and daughter shared a room — and a bed — in her parents’ cramped two-bedroom house in San Jose, where Aquino’s brother, his girlfriend and their newborn son were also staying.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought, ‘Oh, I’ll be there for a year or two and then we’ll move back out.’ But that didn’t happen as quickly as I thought it would,” she said. “It got really crowded at times. And so I was desperate to find a place for Alexys and I to just move out and have some quiet, some space.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stay at her parents’ house stretched to more than five years, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“My initial thought was I want to go to the low-income housing areas for the rental market,” she added. “It was never a thought in my mind to be a homeowner because that just seemed so far away.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alexys also has asthma and the house in San Jose had a serious mold problem, one that resulted in multiple trips to the emergency room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Even though Aquino’s bedroom is now just a few feet down the hall from her daughter’s, she admits that sleeping in separate rooms for the first time in years has been a harder transition than she’d anticipated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m so used to her just sleeping with me that it’s going to take some time for me to fully let go,” Aquino said. “But she’s really excited to have her own room and have her own space.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a different experience,” said Alexys, a thoughtful and soft-spoken teen, of her new room. “It’s your own space, your own privacy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite being only 30 miles north of San Jose, she added, she felt far away from her old life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I cried last night because I don’t get to see my friends,” she said. “But I think Fremont will be a good fresh start.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11768701\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11768701\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-800x522.jpg\" alt=\"Julieta Aquino's daughter Alexys in her new room, the first personal space she's ever had.\" width=\"800\" height=\"522\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-800x522.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-160x104.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-1020x666.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home-1200x783.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Alexys-at-home.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Julieta Aquino’s daughter, Alexys, in her new room, the first personal space she’s ever had. \u003ccite>(Stephanie Lister/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Alexys had been too young to participate in the construction process but became a fixture on the work site over the last two years, decorating signs to place around the grounds while watching her mom help build their future home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was interesting because you pass by these buildings every day, and you never really know all the hard work that goes into them.

The press dubbed it “Camp Agnos.” For months, he allowed the camp and its residents to remain, but under mounting pressure, eventually ordered police to dismantle it. His string of shelters opened hastily in 1990 to accommodate victims of the October 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, but lacking adequate resources, they soon became overcrowded and understaffed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following year, Agnos was unseated by Frank Jordan, his former police chief, who pledged to dramatically change tack and deal with homelessness through a law-and-order approach.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>1992-1996: Jordan’s ‘Matrix’\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11765136\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/jordan1.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11765136\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/jordan1-800x623.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"623\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/jordan1-800x623.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/jordan1-160x125.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/jordan1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Frank Jordan, who was San Francisco’s police chief before becoming mayor, tells a homeless man where he can find shelter for the night. \u003ccite>(Brant Ward/SF Chronicle)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Soon after taking office, Mayor Frank Jordan instituted his Matrix program, an enforcement-based strategy using police to forcibly clear homeless people from the streets and steer them into health and housing services. During the first six months of the program, police issued 6,000 citations for quality-of-life misdemeanors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Critics said the approach criminalized the poor and merely managed homelessness rather than doing anything to prevent it. But many residents and businesses, weary of deteriorating street conditions, supported the plan. In 1994, voters approved Jordan’s measures to ban loitering near ATMs and to replace part of city welfare checks with housing vouchers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Without enough services in place to handle the uptick in numbers, though, little progress was made in preventing the homeless from returning to the streets. Similar to the fate of his predecessor, Jordan’s poorly performing homeless policies — used as ammunition by his challenger, Willie Brown — contributed to his failed re-election bid.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>1996-2004: Brown’s Grand Vision\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11765135\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/brown3.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11765135\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/brown3-800x530.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"530\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/brown3-800x530.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/brown3-160x106.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/brown3.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mayor Willie Brown wields a broom as part of his litter-removal program, while neighborhood youth look on. Brown says his “only option was to manage” homelessness. \u003ccite>(Lea Suzuki/SF Chronicle)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Mayor Willie Brown pledged to bring in outside government funding to expand social services and develop a regional plan with other Bay Area cities. But during the subsequent period of economic expansion and gentrification, fueled by the late 1990s dot-com boom, those plans fell short.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Brown did lead a successful increase in the city’s affordable housing stock, creating thousands of new units and beds by leasing and renovating cheap residential hotels and heavily subsidizing the rent. But he also took a number of controversial pro-development actions, such as increasing quality-of-life citations and closing the Mission Rock homeless shelter to build a parking lot adjacent to Oracle Park (then called SBC Park).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During his second term, Brown took little leadership on the issue, famously declaring homelessness a problem “that may not be solvable.” In 2002, the San Francisco’s homeless population spiked at more than 8,600, as the city became gripped by a housing shortage and skyrocketing costs amid the economic boom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>2004-2010: Newsom’s Supportive Housing\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11765134\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/newsom1.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11765134\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/newsom1-800x520.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"520\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/newsom1-800x520.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/newsom1-160x104.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/newsom1.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Mayor Gavin Newsom at the McAllister Hotel on April 30, 2004, where rooms were being made available to the homeless. \u003ccite>(Brant Ward/SF Chronicle)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>As a city supervisor, Gavin Newsom championed the controversial “Care Not Cash” measure, slashing cash payments to the homeless and redirecting funds toward housing. In his first year as mayor, he introduced an ambitious 10-year plan to end chronic homelessness by creating 3,000 housing units with supportive services and replacing emergency shelter beds with 24-hour clinics. Although the plan fell short of its goal, it did move thousands of homeless people off the streets over the next decade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the program’s first year, homelessness in the city dropped by nearly 30% from its 2002 high. But then the numbers froze — at over 6,000 people — through the remainder of his tenure. As mayor, Newsom also sponsored a measure approved by voters in 2010 that restricted sitting or lying on sidewalks. Homelessness, he later claimed, is the “manifestation of complete, abject failure as a society.

In an effort to woo major tech companies, Lee cleared areas in the Mid-Market district and nearby neighborhoods, and ordered large homeless camps dismantled. Criticized for avoiding the issue, Lee opened the city’s first navigation center in 2015, a 24-hour multiservice homeless shelter providing housing assistance and drug abuse rehabilitation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A month into his second full term, Lee announced a new citywide homeless department, an effort to group all services under one roof and spend at least $1 billion over the following four years to help thousands of people find supportive housing. The department launched in July 2016. A year later, it reported a double-digit decrease in family and youth homelessness, but a slight rise in the number of single homeless adults.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lee then launched a “coordinated entry” initiative to consolidate the dozens of city-funded homeless service groups under one system and have a shared database.

Or does it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We want to know what it’s really like to live in a co-living space and are hoping you can help us tell this Bay Area story. If this describes your housing situation, or that of a friend, let us know in the form below.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What’s this for? KQED will be filming a short docuseries episode on co-living as part of our \u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/feb/12/california-dream-project-launches-statewide-call-s/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California Dream\u003c/a> coverage.

Unlike traditional shelters, the centers allow occupants to bring their pets and don’t require them to leave in the morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='navigation-center' label='Navigation Centers in San Francisco']The Embarcadero navigation center, which would be the city’s largest, elicited a succession of heated and sometimes vitriolic community meetings about the project, attended by staunch advocates for and against the plan. The strongest pushback comes from residents of the South Beach, Rincon Hill and Mission Bay neighborhoods, amid concerns that the facility would transform the tourist-heavy neighborhood into a dirty, crime-ridden area and reduce property values.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The city is leasing the port-owned land for two years for nearly $37,000 a month, and will have the option of renewing for an additional two years if it can show the center has helped reduce homelessness. The port said it still plans to later develop the prime piece of real estate — Seawall Lot 330 — for longer-term, more profitable use.\u003c/p>\n\n",
