San Francisco

the Governor's
Office

California's safety net is rendered and torn -
we must fight to restore

benefits lost and fight to keep what remains.

As we celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Olmstead supreme court
decision - that community living is a civil right guaranteed under the Americans
with Disabilities Act - we must not lose the supports and services that
make community living possible.

Our Homes - Our Dignity - Our Civil Rights

Sacramento must stop the shell game - where California's vast resources
are segregated into "protected" pockets - and only the general fund is
subject to the vagaries of the economy and the budget process.
