Felton Institute

"Felton Institute responds to human needs by providing cutting edge, evidence-based ​mental health and social services that transform lives.

Felton Institute can trace its roots back to 1889. The organization is named for Katharine “Kitty” Felton, its dedicated and maverick director known for tirelessly working to help children and families in need. Kitty Felton believed in the mandate that San Francisco citizens in crisis must have access to social services and resources in order to help them build upon their inherent strengths and develop self-sufficiency.

131 years later, Felton Institute remains the oldest nonsectarian, nonprofit social service provider in San Francisco."
