Family Connections Centers
Helping children and families thrive

Family Connections Centers (FCC) works to ensure that children and families in San Francisco have the essential support and community they need to thrive. Rooted in the needs of the neighborhoods we serve, FCC was created in response to the real needs of families – especially those facing economic hardship, language barriers, or limited access to essential services.

Through a culturally responsive, participant-driven approach FCC provides early childhood education, afterschool enrichment, parenting classes, case management, and basic needs support. Programs are offered in English, Spanish, Cantonese, Mandarin, Vietnamese, and Tagalog. By bringing together education, family support, and community connection under one roof, FCC helps build stability for families while nurturing healthy development at every stage.

I am getting emotional about Kobe, my child. I have seen so much growth and change in him since he first started Pre-K classes here. Kobe has learned so many skills from the teachers. I want my baby girl to come here when she is old enough.""
