CONCLUSION

30

Conclusion

• There has been a steady increase of female appointees while the female

representation in Boards has dropped drastically.

• People of color only represent 52% of appointees to SF Commissions and

Boards; Asians and Hispanic/Latinx are underrepresented.

• The representation of LGBT, people with a disability and veterans in policy

bodies exceeds parity with SF population.

• The policy bodies with larger budgets have smaller representation of

women while Commissions and Boards with smallest budgets have higher female representation.

• Minority representation is at or near parity with the population on policy

bodies with both the smallest and largest budgets.
