The Mayor’s Office of Housing estimates that there are between 11,000 and 14,000 homeless people in San Francisco on any given night. Between 3,300 and 4,200 of these people are single women.

Why does the Clinic Outreach program go where it goes?

• Because we know “health” includes things like food, warmth, and safety
• Because we believe meeting women where they are in life is a crucial part of providing care
• Because we believe in harm reduction education

Our Outreach Program meets women where they are, literally; on the streets and in single residence occupancy hotels, in jail and at Ladies Night, to provide services using a client-centered harm reduction approach. Our services include:

• Distribution of prevention materials such as condoms, hygiene kits and safer drug use kits
• Provision of health education and risk reduction information
• Referrals to appropriate health and social services

The Clinic Outreach program currently has two projects: Ladies Night and Condom Ladies Street Outreach.
