HistoryThe USF Center for Child and Family Development was founded in 1983 by Brian Gerrard, Ph.D., our Executive Director, and Emily Girault, Ph.D., in San Francisco's Mission District after one of the Catholic school principals asked USF for help. Because of USF's commitment to service and to quality education, a positive response was immediate. In a very short time there were fourteen USF Marriage and Family Therapy trainees placed in fourteen of the Mission cluster schools for the academic year. The first trainees were part of a new form of counseling called School-Based Family Counseling in which the counselor at the school helps children with problems by working with the entire family. However, since some parents are unable to meet at the school because of their work schedules, or their wish for privacy, a community counseling center was developed. After being in different locations for many years, we recently moved our Community Counseling Center to 36 Monterey Blvd, in Glen Park.SpecialtiesNOTE: We will be moving to our new location on September 1st, 2010.
