This episode dives into the reality of life inside San Francisco's Shelter in Place (SIP) Hotel program. There are 2,400 formerly unhoused people currently staying in SIP hotel rooms in San Francisco, and while the City has committed to housing most of them, the details of where and how that will happen are unclear.
We'll hear first from Mary Crisis, a former SIP hotel worker who penned a damning open letter about the conditions in the hotels which you can read on their twitter page @jfchrist. Then we speak with SIP hotel tenant Nicholas Garrett about the necessity of the SIP Hotel program as well as the violations he has witnessed inside.
The weather report is brought to you by Ezra Teshome, a singer songwriter out of San Francisco. Their Ethiopian ancestry and exposure to old folk, blues, and electronic music are major influences for their work.
