HOMELESS CHILDREN'S NETWORK MISSION STATEMENT
Homeless Children's Network's (HCN) mission is to decrease the trauma of homelessness and
domestic violence for children, youth, and families; to empower families; and to increase the
effectiveness of collaborative efforts among service providers to end homelessness and poverty. Since 1992, HCN has empowered San Francisco's underserved and historically marginalized
communities citywide toward a brighter future with love, wholeness, and healing.
About Homeless Children's Network (HCN)
Since 1992, HCN has been San Francisco's leading nonprofit agency for comprehensive early
intervention and mental health support for underserved and historically marginalized children,
youth, and families experiencing homelessness, housing instability, or living in intergenerational poverty. Our mobile therapeutic model is both accessible and scalable, enabling clinicians to
meet clients directly in the community. As the hub of a Collaborative of 60+ service agencies
and community-based organizations, we serve over 2,500 clients each year, reaching those most
reluctant to trust conventional mental health systems. Central to our work is our Afri-centric
mental health and wellness model. This community-defined approach addresses health inequities
and the persistent cycle of racism and trauma over generations. This model not only uplifts the
Black/African American communities but also strengthens the behavioral health outcomes of all
San Franciscans, fostering resilience, healing, and lasting change.
