John,



It's time to end cash payments for people doing drugs and not accepting treatment <[link removed]>. 



Because compassion has to be paired with accountability.



We will continue to support those struggling with addiction who are seeking help. People who have an identified substance use disorder who receive cash through county assistance, also known as general assistance or GA, will only be allowed to do so if they are receiving treatment. But, those who refuse to enroll in the wide range of treatment services the city offers will no longer receive County-funded cash assistance.



If you want help, we are here to provide it. But no more “anything goes” on our streets. If you agree, please sign the petition in support. <[link removed]>

While counties are limited in their abilities to force people to accept treatment, my drug treatment initiative will give people another push to enter into the treatment they need and that we all want them to access. And it will prevent those who are uninterested or unwilling to access treatment from getting financial support until they do.



My initiative will require the Board of Supervisors to adopt this change because our local government lacks the tools to compel people into treatment.



But I need your help.Will you sign up in support of my initiative? <[link removed]>



<[link removed]>Sign the Petition <[link removed]>



Treatment and compassion are tools we can employ to help motivate people to get treatment instead of allowing people to deteriorate and die on our streets. San Francisco is a city of compassion, but also a city that demands accountability. 



Sincerely, 







Mayor London Breed
