On Saturday of Easter weekend, one of the homeless guests at the Embarcadero SAFE Navigation Center went into labor and was transported to a San Francisco hospital to give birth to her new baby. The next day, a long-time couple stepped out in the courtyard between the two gray bunker dormitories at the waterfront center to say: “I do now.” They tied the knot to the cheers of a handful of (socially distanced) guests. In the two weeks that have followed, the staff at Bayshore Navigation center and at

Shared by his teacher Cherie McNaulty at Glenn Dyer in Alameda County"Hi, everybody. You know I failed third grade when I was a kid. The teacher told me that I was dyslexic.
