With the Senior population doubling by 2020, San Francisco is in a unique position to prepare and The Coalition of Agencies Serving the Elderly (CASE) and others will be making their case for the City to step up its services.
 
 
One of the main issues for seniors is aging in place.  The eviction rate has pushed many elderly on the streets.  Just drive around San Francisco and see or just step over the homeless camped out on steps or in front of garages of homes in "good neighborhoods."  The situation is becoming more and more problematic for many neighborhoods.  Read San Francisco's Eviction Crisis.  Don't read it and weep. Do something.  Start with today's rally and keep the crisis from coming to your family's doorstep.  The rate of evictions is one issue.  Thanks to Supervisor Campos efforts to do something in the mission.  Hopefully, the news of Campos' moratorium on market rate construction announced on "Cinco de Mayo" concerning the Mission will get more play than how much tequila is consumed by Americans (double that of Mexico).  If Campos is not on the right track, what do you propose?
