The San Francisco Child Abuse Prevention Center (SFCAPC) is a non-profit organization seeking to prevent child abuse and neglect and to promote healthy families. For more than three decades, the programs that make up the SFCAPC have helped parents in their efforts to better care for their children; to provide direct services to children to help them deal with the effects of abuse and to cope with difficult family situations; and to provide public education and training on child abuse issues. SFCAPC has three departmental areas: Family & Children Services (24/7 Parental Stress TALK Line, Family Support, Mental Health Counseling, Respite Care, and Children’s Playroom), Education & Advocacy, and Systems Improvement.
The organization’s annual budget is approximately $3.0 million. The organization recently acquired its building, an historic firehouse in the Haight neighborhood near Golden Gate Park. The organization is supported by approximately 55 staff, interns, and consultants and more than 80 volunteers. More information is available at: www.sfcapc.org.
