The legislation would identify (1) counseling to children, youth and families who have been traumatized by violence and (2) violence prevention outreach to students in the San Francisco Unified School District as top priorities for the expenditure of these funds. In addition, it would ensure that the services provided through the legislation would be culturally sensitive, including outreach in multiple languages and by workers who reflect the communities in which they work.
