    Not worth the money. It took all of 15 minutes to get the whole experience. So poorly put together. Huge rip off.

They are awesome! A panel of at least 3 trained volunteer mediators help you resolve conflict. They helped my co-worker and I. We are now good friends to this day. Thanks Community Boards! I wish I were more like them. They have helped me in so many ways I can't even begin to explain. Plus, I have to get back to work.

The idea is that once you can see things from each other's points of view and start to unobjectify each other, it becomes easier (less agitated) to talk about the problem and to figure out a mutually beneficial solution in a collaborative way. Simple concept, but like many things, harder to realize. After observing the conflict resolution techniques in action a few times, it seems more doable each time as I understand the process better. I learned a lot from CB about conflict resolution techniques. Also how to be a better listener. Very useful as conflicts are part of life and handling them well can build relationships. CB also provides training to schools, and to people interested in learning mediation. More information about this on CB's web site. Low-cost mediation by professionals is also available.

I'm not always comfortable with what I see there, but I'm always inspired to be a better part of my community, and inspired to bring more people to see what Intersection is all about.

Or something like that. I recently attended the new Intersection for the culmination of a storytelling class where each student was showcased on stage for their 10 minutes of fame. Lots of fun for both the students and the audience in this comfortably informal environment. Intersection feels like the red-headed stepchild of "Yerba Buena Center for the Arts" and "The Marsh". Their programming is YBCA-lite, offering simlar artsy fare on a smaller scale and budget. They move into Marsh territory by sprinkling in a few classes and providing a venue that still gives you no reason to dress up for your big night out. I've enjoyed the events I've attended at Intersection but, like YBCA, I infrequently find anything amongst their programming that compels me to attend. Lucky for them, that doesn't seem to matter. They've been around for more than 40 years now, even weathering the recent economic woes which laid to rest many other well-established arts organizations. If there's an offering that appeals, keep 'em around for another 40+, and go check out Intersection.

    I'm gonna be real. I was not excited about getting LinkedIn photos taken on a random afternoon. But…read moreoh boy did Eddie completely changed that experience. Let me tell you, this man is a walking encyclopedia of photography! And all other things too, turns out. Let's just say he knows what he's doing! Detail oriented doesn't even cover it, he will notice things you never would and quietly make it all better without making a big deal out of it. What surprised me most was how natural and comfortable the whole thing felt. It was quick, easy, and I genuinely forgot I was being photographed at some point, which I think is the highest compliment you can pay a photographer. Eddie is also just a great person to talk to. 10/10. Would let Eddie photograph my face again without hesitation.

    I had a blast working with Eddie Hernandez. We updated some headshots in early August on site…read morearound The Mission. We exchanged a few texts regarding wardrobe, and Eddie is a fan of bold, solid primary colors. As am I, so this worked out well. I did bring some furs with me, you know, since it was August in San Francisco, but overall the shoot was much less glam squad and much more urban sophisticate. I'm sure you could set expectation if you prefer more "boudoir" look and feel - but overall I feel Eddie's forte is ubiquitiously "San Francisco": Effortlessly urbane. From his impeccable location shots in The Mission, to his unflappable professionalism when encountered with nude men watching our shoot (you knew I was going to bring up the naked leering Peeping Tom - and you should see my facial expressions he captured!), to his ease and desire to capture one's natural spirit and charisma. (Although, I'd be happy with a less wrinkled charisma, but hey - I'm a funny gal and laughing is dangerous for the skin). If you're looking for someone to capture your essence and the spirit of San Francisco/Bay Area, Eddie Hernandez is a premier choice.

Happy to report you, that the venue is fully accessible. Inside are many updates & building seems well-maintained. We were escorted in to a formal room on second floor, w/round tables & Fall decorations. The doors to the Green Room were open, letting the sunshine in. Bright room with floor to ceiling windows & curtains. Seated & served 150 guests from 2-3:30pm and second seating later (4:30-6pm. Again with another 150 guests ;-) We sat closest to the window. What a view looking out the floor to ceiling windows. The autumnal feast was catered from Mollie Stone's. The full Thanksgiving meal was turkey w/all the fixings, and a nice helping of pumpkin pie to finish! Delicious food! We enjoyed visiting & meeting friends at the table. Can we talk? Oh yes, we talked a lot and spoke of gratitude & love. Lovely, lovely Feast! We thank Open House, Visa, Google, Gielead and rest of sponsors, whose names escape me (Sorry!) Thank you all to; the catering, service staff, set up crews & outside volunteers - You made everyone happy.

However, it is a nice place to hang out and relax if you need to take a beat while in this part of the city. Unlike going to a coffeeshop which is often crowded, this is a relatively quiet place where the staff are friendly. Think of it as an indoor publicly funded park, and your perspective might shift towards gratitude. For the record, the staff seems to do the best they can. My personal experience with receiving government aid is that it helps to read on the documentation online and to just be patient and persistent.

The second time I went, a couple weeks back, they provided absolutely no help, no information, nothing. Just set me up with a "counselor" who was rude as fuck, start off by just blurting out "What do you want?" VERY rudely. Immediately walked out, called to file a complaint and haven't heard anything from them since. Entire Department can and should be replaced with AI. It'd be more helpful.
