The ordinance argues that Antonetty is “credited with creating permanent supportive housing as it is known in San Francisco.”
An ordinance that would name the permanent supportive housing development at 1321 Mission St. after the late public health advocate Margot Antonetty is working its way through City Hall.
She began her career in San Francisco as an AIDS activist at Baker Places, a nonprofit treatment center, in the late '80s. After spending nearly a decade in that role, Antonetty joined San Francisco’s Department of Public Health in 1998. Is California’s rent cap law working? It’s impossible to know for sure — but landlords have plenty of incentive not to follow it
The building proposed to take on her moniker, and in turn her memory, was acquired by The City in 2022 for the purpose of providing permanent supportive housing for adults and families. “The beauty of 1321 Mission is not only that it’s a new home in the heart of The City for more than 200 people leaving homelessness permanently behind. It’s also a beautiful, modern space, where anyone who walks through the door with a key in their hand will know that they matter to their city and community,” said Mary Kate Bacalao, director of external affairs and policy for Compass Family Services at the time of the acquisition.
