Mission

Family Connections Centers’ mission is to support the development of strong, healthy families and thriving communities. We create opportunities for people of different backgrounds to work together cooperatively, sharing cultures, values, knowledge, and resources.

Vision

Through programming at our centers in the Excelsior and Portola neighborhoods of San Francisco and virtual meetings and workshops, we offer community-based, culturally humble, multilingual programming that adapts to the needs of families.

Our vision is for healthy and safe communities that foster the growth and development of children, providing a continuum of care from birth through adulthood and engaging with multiple generations in families.
