San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom has appointed Margaret Hertz Brodkin (B-CC '61) as head of the city's Department of Children, Youth and their Families. Margie has been  executive director in San Francisco of  Coleman Advocates for Children and Youth since 1978.
 
  Newsom said that under Margie's leadership,  Coleman has become a national model for youth advocacy organizations. She she also spearheaded a successful referendum drive, also replicated elsewhere, to insure city funding for youth programs. She successfully fought for reforms in San Francisco’s juvenile justice, child welfare, health, recreation, and child care systems; expansion of preventative community based services for families; increased planning and accountability in the service delivery system.
    Margaret's publications include "Every Kid Counts: 31 Ways to Serve Our Children." She and her husband, Dr. Henry Brodkin, have two sons, and live in San Francisco.
