The Commission
The Commission on the Status of Women is a 7-member charter commission appointed by the Mayor. The Board of Supervisors established the Commission in 1975, and residents of San Francisco voted to create a chartered Department on the Status of Women in 1994 to carry out the policies of the Commission.
