The public-private partnership for HOPE SF, led by the City and County of San Francisco, San Francisco Foundation, and Enterprise Community Partners, brings together expertise from the public, nonprofit, housing, and philanthropic sectors, working together to improve the lives of public housing residents, remove systemic barriers, and build wealth and prosperity.
From 2011 – 2017, Mayor Ed Lee, who grew up in public housing in Seattle and spent much of his career as a civil rights attorney, significantly increased City resources dedicated to HOPE SF. He hired the first Director of HOPE SF , allocated funds to support permanent wellness centers and nursing staff at each of the HOPE SF sites, passed Measure A, securing $310 million in bonds to fund affordable housing programs, which launched Potrero and Sunnydale.
