The mission of the Department of Counseling at San Francisco State University is to train the next generation of counselor leaders who recognize that the liberation of all communities is only possible when an intersectional, participatory, community-driven approach to counseling is practiced. Our training program is grounded in the belief that counseling, as a field of practice, affords professionals the knowledge and skills needed to carry out social justice work via strengths-based healing and wellness, advocacy, critical consciousness development, and action-oriented scholarship and research.
Your gift directly supports:
1.Student Scholarships and Emergency Support
Many of our graduate counseling students are first-generation college students, working professionals, caregivers, and individuals from historically marginalized communities. Donations will help provide scholarships and modest emergency grants to reduce financial barriers and support student retention and completion.
2. Clinical Training & Professional Development
We aim to support student travel to professional conferences (e.g., ACA, ACES, AMHCA), licensure preparation resources, and specialized training opportunities that strengthen clinical competence and workforce readiness. These funds help students build networks, present research, and deepen their professional identities as counselors.
Thank you for your support! #gatorgivingday
