“It’s hard to find words for the grief and rage our nation is feeling today. First Renée Good, then Alex Pretti—two lives lost after being shot and killed by federal ICE officers while trying to protect their neighbor’s rights. We’ve lost a loving mother of three. We’ve lost a dedicated ICU nurse. Just as we have lost so many Black and Brown people over the course of our nation’s history. All their names lie heavy on my heart: Breonna Taylor, Oscar Grant, George Floyd, Sandra Bland, Rekia Boyd, and so many more. “

“On January 29th, GLIDE joined city leaders, partners, and community members to celebrate the ribbon cutting of the new Transitional Age Youth (TAY) Health and Wellness Center at 888 Post Street—a milestone for San Francisco and a powerful investment in our young people’s futures. Designed to serve youth ages 18 to 27, the Center offers a welcoming, dignified space where young adults can find stability, care, and an opportunity to move toward independence at a critical moment in their lives.”
