Earlier today, the San Francisco Interfaith Council (SFIC) hosted the 41st in a series of weekly COVID-19 (Coronavirus) response briefings for faith leaders. Today's program featured San Francisco Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing Interim Director Abigail Stewart-Kahn, who reported on San Francisco's Homelessness Response System, the impacts and response of the System of Care during COVID-19 and the Department's recovery efforts through the implementation of the Mayor's Homelessness Recovery Plan, that supports investments in housing and shelter to help the City create more resources for homeless residents as San Francisco endures and eventually emerges from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Also participating were Zoom Briefing Moderator/SFIC Executive Director Michael Pappas, SFIC Board Chair and Shanti Project Executive Director Kaushik Roy, St. Gregory of Nyssa Episcopal Church Director of Ministry and Founder of "The Food Pantry" Sara Miles, Catholic Charities of San Francisco, Marin and San Mateo Client Services Vice President Ellen Hammerle, Ph.D, LMFT, Episcopal Community Services Executive Director Beth Stokes and St. Vincent de Paul Society Executive Director Shari Wooldridge.
