St. Francis Square Cooperative, Inc.

St Francis

The Community Living Campaign is bringing together Residents of St. Francis Square Cooperative Apartments with the blessing of the Co-op Board of Directors.

The convening organizer, Marcia Peterzell, is a long time Resident and community organizer. She has been with CLC for 3 years.

The idea for SFSQ, in essence, is to develop internal support networks to help Residents age well in their homes and community. Many possibilities emerged from the initial meetings ­ providing respite care for caregivers; providing shoppers or assistants to Residents who have difficulty with stairs and carrying purchases to their apartments; providing more social events to keep people connected. CLC will be encouraging Residents to contribute - phone calls, food offerings for meetings, a friendly ear for conversation, giving testimony at City hearings - as examples - in order for everyone doing what they can to enhance this vibrant community.

Stay tuned for more updates. If you know someone in St. Francis Square Co-op who might be interested in helping or being helped, let us know by calling 415.821.1003 or emailing SFSQ@sfcommunityliving.org.
