San Francisco has allocated nearly $4 billion in contracts to various nonprofits, sparking a debate over the compensation of their leaders, with CEOs receiving an average compensation of $304,000. The discussion intensified with revelations about Vitka Eisen of HealthRIGHT360, who commands a significant salary despite the organization's involvement in controversies, including 5 people and an employee dying of drug overdose in their programs, and receiving $200 million in contracts from the city. The city's financial management is under scrutiny, with suggestions to cap nonprofit leaders' salaries at $200,000 to address the nearly $1 billion debt. Meanwhile, the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC) is facing its own leadership crisis, with Josh Wester announcing the launch of an independent nonprofit to handle abuse reform efforts, despite criticism over accountability and the denial of a widespread abuse crisis within the SBC.
S.F. gave these nonprofits nearly $4 billion in contracts. Here’s how much they pay their leaders https://t.co/QHpMXcIwmG via @sfchronicle
Earlier this month, a group of sex abuse victims asked the justices to place the billion-dollar settlement on hold while they appeal, noting that the justices are considering a similar matter in a different dispute. https://t.co/thOWMm0gx5
Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. said Friday in an order that the court would pause the bankruptcy settlement, giving the court more time to fully consider the matter. https://t.co/thOWMlZIHx
Leaders of the Southern Baptist Convention say they intend to establish a separate nonprofit organization to handle sexual abuse claims. https://t.co/adJgNjUHao
Excellent new article on the unavoidable political nature of the SBC from Mark DeVine at @AmReformer The SBC is currently on a “full Keller” arc. Is that the future conservative Southern Baptists want? If not, we must elect different leaders. https://t.co/XyDduyjMF9 https://t.co/ARcpBtw2b0
Companies with the largest nonprofit contracts in S.F. — who are not audited for results and have little to no success to show for their “work” — pay their CEOs VERY well. In fact, some of my favorite grifters made the list. https://t.co/kIiP8olstI
“The average compensation for CEOs whose nonprofits have the 24 biggest contracts with the city was $304,000 last fiscal year, but that ranged from $149,000 to $762,000.” https://t.co/0DAMvLmwPB
Once again we are faced with the deep crisis of leadership in the SBC. We don’t have leaders who have the courage to stand on the Bible and tell the truth. Or the courage to shut down radical activists who propose unbiblical and un-Baptist solutions to non-existent problems.
“And yet, they can’t do the right thing - which is to forthrightly say that there is no SBC abuse crisis as such, and that it is unjust to hold the SBC responsible for every act of abuse committed in any church that happens to be SBC.” https://t.co/ilnd5o4S15
SBC churches, almost all of which have never abused anyone, are supposed to write a blank check to some 3rd party which they can't hold accountable This isn't the blind leading the blind so much as the town idiot, Wester, leading the other idiots, SBC employees, into a grift-pit https://t.co/gatZ5l4U9k
Breaking out of the @SBCExecComm: Josh Wester announced the launch of an “independent non-profit” for SBC “abuse reform” efforts and the “database” This organization would have to be funded by SBC dollars—but it would have limited (if any) accountability to messengers.
Look who's near the top of the non-profit pay scale in San Francisco. Vitka Eisen of HealthRIGHT360, where 5 people and an employee died of drug overdose in their programs and get $200 million in contracts from San Francisco. Astounding. @SF_DPH @LondonBreed @Stefani4CA https://t.co/CdfWUYYWKK
