SAC Updates!

Hey everyone!!!

The 2012 Youth Summit was AWESOME!!! Extra congrats to our dance battle participants and special thank-yous to our guest speakers and performers!!

Where are we on our free Muni for youth campaign?? The Muni board of directors will be voting on free Muni for youth at their next meeting! They did vote at their last meeting for reduced fare for low income youth, but it didn't pass with a 3-3 vote.

It Gets Better.

Bullying is mean, and a serious issue. The SFPD is showing their support with their video "It Gets Better," to support the LGBTQ community to know that as you get older, it does get better.
