Call Script

My name is _____, my zip code is ____, and I’m a member of IndivisibleSF.

I’m calling in support of AB 2054 – the CRISES Act, because it would take a much-needed step toward funding community-oriented crisis intervention services. It’s great that community organizations help vulnerable populations in emergency situations, but it’s not enough. California needs to support these organizations.

AB 2054 will help people get appropriate emergency services from trained professionals with connection to their communities. I am asking State Senator Wiener to help vulnerable Californians in crisis by supporting AB 2054.

Background

AB-2054: The CRISES Act, recently sent to the California Senate, would fund community alternatives to police crisis response. The CRISES Act directs the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) to administer $16 million in grants to community organizations in at least ten counties over the next three years.

Amid the protests of killings of innocent people by police, and demands to defund the police, the CRISES act would provide urgent reform. The CRISES Act is supported by many organizations, including:

  • Alliance for Boys and Men of Color

  • ACLU of California

  • Anti Police-Terror Project

  • Berkeley Free Clinic

  • East Bay Community Law Center Justice Teams Network

  • Oakland Power Projects PolicyLink

  • Public Health Advocates

  • STOP (StopTerrorism Oppression by Police Coalition)

  • UDW/AFSCME Local 3930

  • Youth Justice Coalition

San Francisco’s Environment Department (SFE) is charged with implementing the city’s ambitious Climate Action Plan, and yet its share of the city budget is a few tenths of a percent. And Mayor Lurie is planning to drastically reduce the amount SFE receives from the General Fund.
