San Francisco currently has 30,000 vacant units and 42,000 empty hotel rooms while 18,000 homeless people who are disproportionately elderly, chronically ill and with severe medical conditions are without homes. Currently, the City is only placing those who test positive or who are symptomatic into hotel rooms.
We are calling on the City to house every single homeless person in a vacant housing unit immediately, prioritizing those who fall into the high-risk category.
