Support for Families of Children with Disabilities
Affirming, parent-led support for families of children with disabilities in San Francisco and throughout the Bay Area.

For 43 years, Support for Families of Children with Disabilities has empowered families to ensure their child receives the care they need at school, at home, and within the community. Our mission is to ensure that families of children with disabilities, learning differences, developmental concerns, and/or complex medical needs (and the providers who serve them) have the knowledge and support to make informed choices that enhance their children’s development and well-being. We are a parent-led organization committed to increasing equity and accessibility for children with disabilities, complex medical needs, or who are at risk for developmental delays. We are dedicated to creating a community where all children flourish. The majority of our staff, board, and Executive Director are parents of children with disabilities, complex medical needs and/or developmental delays. We have deep experience navigating complex systems for our children, as well as professional training, education, and experience. Staff speak English, Spanish, Cantonese, Vietnamese, and Cambodian and interpretation is available for other languages.

Support for Families is absolutely vital to our family. It acts as a bridge between our world and the world we have to function in.
