About Us
       
•Annual Report

Like all children, children who have disabilities need opportunities to grow and develop to their maximum ability. To help their children, parents and caretakers need both knowledge and support.

       

Support for Families of Children with Disabilities (SFCD)
Is a parent-run San Francisco-based nonprofit organization founded in 1982. We support families of children with any kind of disability or special health care need as they face challenges.

Our Vision:
Families of children with disabilities will have the information, resources and support they need to make informed choices for their children.

Our Mission:
To support families as they face challenges.

Support for Families offers a wide range of information, education, and parent-to-parent support services free of charge to more then 2,400 San Francisco families every year.

We also provide information and educational services to professionals who work with families, and actively collaborate with other organizations to work towards a more coordinated, family-friendly network of services.

We believe that families who have "been there" can be the best resources for each other.

Most of our staff members, 120 volunteers, and board members are, themselves, family members of children with disabilities.
