Serving the San Francisco Bay Area
Since its founding in 1968, CIIS’ symbiotic relationship with the San Francisco Bay Area has continued to deepen and grow. This dynamic region and its people are an intrinsic part of the CIIS experience. In turn, CIIS has a profound impact on the Bay Area community through its community clinics, public programs, and arts that bring academic inquiry and healing into everyday life.
Our Award-winning Community Counseling Clinics
We believe that mental health care is a human right. Our six community counseling centers have been serving as a bastion of equitable care in underserved San Francisco Bay Area communities for more than 40 years.
CIIS Public Programs
Curated conversations and experiences with established and emergent thought leaders and activists help participants confront the pressing sociocultural and psychospiritual challenges of our time.
Arts at CIIS
With 12-15 annual events including exhibitions, artist lectures, and community conversations, Arts at CIIS creates the space for robust exchange and growth to nourish curiosity, advance civic participation, and foster discourse across differences.
A Podcast for the Radically Curious
CIIS Public Programs Podcast presents a diverse array of world-renowned scholars, leaders, authors, artists, and thinkers who explore new perspectives about people and society.
