Report Back Meeting

On June 20, 2019, MOHCD held a meeting at Born Auditorium to provide the community with a summary of key findings from community engagement for the Mayor’s Office of Housing and Community Development’s (MOHCD) and the Office of Economic and Workforce Development’s (OEWD) five-year strategic planning process.  The written report is available below.


Background

MOHCD aims to meet the needs of San Franciscans looking for affordable housing and related services. Hearing from the community is critical to our mission. Your feedback helps us shape our plans and programs for the future.

Every five years, we create three strategic plans to help direct our policies. We invite you to join us in developing this year’s plans. Stay tuned for other ways to get involved!

The Consolidated Plan

  • Primary department plan
  • Identifies affordable housing and community development needs and priorities
  • Guides the use of federal and local funding

Analysis of Impediments to Fair Housing Choice

  • Looks at fair housing issues, including patterns of segregation
  • Examines how these issues can impact access to opportunity
  • Influences strategies in MOHCD's other plans

HIV Housing Plan

  • Focuses on housing-related programs for people living with HIV
  • Manages a number of programs, and funding from both federal and local sources
  • Directs the development of new HIV housing initiatives

Approaches and strategies

As part of our process, we use two critical lenses to inform our work:

  • The Racial Equity lens helps us work to end gaps so that race cannot predict someone's success, and we increase the success of all communities.
  • Trauma-Informed Systems engage and support San Franciscans with a history of trauma. We acknowledge the role that trauma has played on their lives. We aim to meet these residents where they are, without judgement.

MOHCD's timeline for developing the 3 plans

  1. Community outreach and engagement (October 2018 - March 2019)
