The Center of Excellence for Immigrant Child Health and Wellbeing (CoE) is a cross-bay entity based at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals in San Francisco and Oakland, California and serves as the infrastructure for collective action to address the health of children in immigrant families through education, evidence-based clinical services, and advocacy.  

In partnership with community-based legal organizations and legal firms, the CoE coordinates the UCSF Pediatric Human Rights Collaborative-East Bay which provides children and youth seeking asylum with forensic documentation of the physical and psychological manifestations of torture and ill-treatment experienced in order to apply for asylum in the United States. The clinic trains clinicians on how to perform forensic evaluations and help build a network of providers in the Bay Area, advocate for asylum seekers and provide referrals to health and social services for the clients we serve. 

CARECEN SF empowers and responds to the needs, rights and aspirations of Latino, immigrant, and under-resourced families in the San Francisco Bay Area — building leadership to pursue self-determination and justice. Rooted in its cultural strengths and inspired by the Central American justice struggles, CARECEN SF envisions our diverse immigrant community as thriving; where families prosper, build effective community institutions, and participate confidently in civic life.

Kids in Need of Defense (KIND) is an international nongovernmental organization devoted to the protection of unaccompanied and separated children.

As part of SFILDC, KIND provides free direct legal representation, pro bono mentoring, and social service support for unaccompanied children in San Francisco facing removal.

Immigrant Legal Defense’s (ILD) mission is to promote justice through the provision of legal representation to underserved immigrant communities. To consistently deliver high volume, high quality removal defense services, ILD’s experienced team of attorneys work together efficiently. Our complementary expertise covering the full scope of immigration law and procedure allows us to represent thousands of unaccompanied minors, families seeking asylum, and individuals in detained and non-detained immigration proceedings throughout California.  Together, we have launched innovative programs and partnerships that are recognized as national models for both the delivery of critical immigration legal services and for advocacy. Led by our clients and in partnership with other advocates, our hope is to reimagine and rebuild an immigration system freed from the injustice, racism, and cruelty so prevalent in the current system.

The Justice & Diversity Center (JDC) is one of the largest and most distinguished legal services providers in San Francisco.

Serving the San Francisco community since 1977, the JDC was known prior to 2013 as the Volunteer Legal Services Program of the Bar Association of San Francisco.
