Family input

To deliver on our mission to center family voices in systems change, the SF Kids Collaborative incorporates family input throughout our work. San Francisco families with lived experience are embedded in all forums in which SF Kids convenes. Some examples of family input are below. 

Family focus groups

In addition to our standard recurring meetings, SF Kids periodically convenes broader focus groups to capture input.

A Partnership with the Department of Public Health
