Mission & History

Huckleberry’s mission is to educate, inspire, and support under served youth to develop healthy life choices, to maximize their potential, and to realize their dreams. Since 1967, we have accomplished this by providing San Francisco and Marin youth and their families with a network of services and opportunities by caring peers and adults.

For teens and their families everywhere, adolescence can be a difficult time. Many low-income youth face additional barriers, risks and pressures, making these years even more critical. Though challenging, adolescence presents a unique opportunity to change course and make choices that will lead to a more promising future. For over 50 years, Huckleberry has partnered with teens and families to overcome adversity.

We seek to empower young people to develop and maintain healthy relationships as well as promote their talents, ideas, leadership and health; to assist youth and their families in overcoming the obstacles they may encounter, which can include family concerns, drug and alcohol abuse, mental health challenges, teen pregnancy, sexually transmitted infections, violence, social and economic inequities, and physical and sexual abuse; and to assist clients in navigating complex social welfare, educational and juvenile justice systems.

Huckleberry’s Four Service Areas: Huckleberry strengthens families and empowers young people with services that promote safety in times of crisis, physical and emotional health and well-being, social justice in communities facing inequity, and educational success. When all youth succeed, the entire community is stronger.

Huckleberry Youth Programs

Every Tuesday afternoon in San Rafael’s Montecito Plaza, youth from throughout Marin County access Huckleberry’s Teen Tuesday Clinic, a unique model that integrates sexual healthcare with comprehensive mental and behavioral health screening and intervention. Since the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic, youth have the option to schedule Teen Tuesday Clinic appointments in advance, to increase safety for both clients and staff.

The most commonly requested services at Teen Tuesday Clinic are: STI testing, gynecological exams, pregnancy testing, options counseling, and family planning/birth control.

In addition to accessing medical services provided by our medical partner, Marin Community Clinics, youth participate in social emotional assessments and are linked directly to support for issues such as substance use, depression, relationship abuse, sexualized violence, or tangible needs such as housing, with referrals being made to our San Francisco crisis shelter, Huckleberry House.
