Proposition I increases and protects funding for services for seniors and adults with disabilities for 10 years into the future\u2014$38 million plus an additional $6 million for 2017-18, and an additional $3 million for each of the next 10 years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cWe\u2019re holding these community forums because we want to reach as many people as possible. We want to hear from you,\u201d said DAAS Executive Director Shireen McSpadden. \u201cThe forums help us know the strengths of our current system, what needs to be improved, and what\u2019s missing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Three members of the Community Music Center (CMC) senior choir at MNC and Centro Latino de San Francisco eagerly attested to the health benefits of singing in a choir. \u201cIt\u2019s good for our minds, our bodies, it builds community, and it\u2019s fun,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">A service provider also praised the close collaboration among local agencies, which makes it easier to leverage resources for their clients, and several Chinese-speakers praised the computer training offered in Chinese.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">The lunch programs at the MNC, Centro Latino, On Lok Senior Center on 30th Street, and the Mission YMCA drew praise, as did the food pantries at MNC and the Mission YMCA.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">\u201cThe activities at MNC make me want to come every day and keep me alive,\u201d said one audience member, summing up the general response to the strength of existing programs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">The last two questions however\u2014\u201dWhat could be improved?\u201d and \u201cWhat is needed?\u201d\u2014 elicited a quick response of \u201cmoney, money, money\u201d and easy laughter, followed by numerous suggestions. The suggestions given included: finding and retaining affordable housing; in-home wifi to enable a quick response when housing options became available; more responsive support on issues of elder abuse; free legal support to help seniors complete power of attorney forms and avoid conservatorship; a service to alert seniors on scams that target seniors and how to avoid becoming a victim; assistance in negotiating with landlords; help in navigating DAAS and other bureaucracies offering services that enable seniors to stay safe at home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Other services audience members wanted to see included were evening and weekend activities to \u201coffset the stress of living in small places\u201d; an apartment match program to help seniors find roommates; and a referral service where seniors could share needs and resources. One senior noted that while senior centers provide field trips to casinos, nobody organizes field trips to spiritual centers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">DAAS is responsible for serving seniors and adults with disabilities, yet, one woman noted, existing services focus on seniors. \u201cWhere are the programs for adults with disabilities. My son doesn\u2019t feel comfortable attending programs at senior centers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">A woman sitting in the back of the room with her elderly husband introduced herself and asked: \u201cWhat services are available? I don\u2019t know what\u2019s available and how to qualify for these services. How do I get homecare?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">The input from all 11 forums will be available on the DAAS website by mid-November. Also in mid-November, RDA, the group facilitating the forums, will begin conducting an online, phone and in-person survey; focus groups will be conducted at a later date. Check the DAAS website at www.sfdaas.org to view and complete the survey.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Seniors or people caring for seniors and adults with disabilities are encouraged to check the DAAS website for a list of available services, and to contact DAAS intake at 415-355-6700 or 800-510-2020 with questions. Anna Galleger (an aide to District 9 Supervisor Hillary Ronen who focuses on senior issues), can be reached at 415-554-5144. For information about the senior choirs and how to join one of them, contact CMC at 415-647-6015 x81.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">Contact Melissa McGee, DAAS staff assigned to the Dignity Fund, for further information on the Fund and how you can be involved: Melissa.mcgee@sfgov.org or 415-355-6782.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">If you are a senior or an adult with disabilities, or if you are caring for a senior or an adult with disabilities, this is the time to be involved.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\">[su_box title=&#8221;SF Department of Aging and Adult Services Survey&#8221;]If you are the 1:4 San Francisco residents who is a senior or an adult with disabilities, or if you&#8217;re helping care for an aging adult or someone living with a chronic illness,\u00a0 then you&#8217;ll want to complete this survey.
