“Building Back Stronger: Funding to support the Black community"
Through this initiative, $6 million annually will be invested in program recommendations developed by dozens of community members across months of meetings hosted by Director Davis and the Human Rights Commission. For more details, click here to visit the SF Human Rights Commission website.
These investments are focused on closing the Black unemployment gap, in which Black San Franciscans continue to have an estimated unemployment rate 2.5 times that of the citywide average, with similarly disproportionate gaps in income and wealth.
