I'm delighted to be serving as the Chair of the Board of the San Francisco Conservation Corps.
The SFCC, I believe, is the most important program dealing with youth at risk in San Francisco. It's the only program I know that is providing job training skills directly to the participants and providing educational opportunities.
During the past 12 months alone, Corpsmembers have greatly increased the diversion of recyclables from landfills, created gardens and playgrounds in numerous parks and public spaces, and participated in literally thousands of hours od education.
I want to thank all of our supporters, as well as our supporters over the last 27 years, and I look forward to the Corps' continued growth and success in the years to come.
