Larkin Street Youth Services is providing life-changing resources and support to young San Franciscans struggling to get by. I’m proud to have delivered $1 million in federal funds to support their efforts. With the cost of living as high as ever, I’m grateful for @DanielLurie and all the staff at Larkin for their partnership to ensure we are taking care of our young people.
