The Children’s Campus (CC) opened in January 2009 and it supports children of the faculty and staff at San Francisco State University. The CC provides high quality care and education for approximately 68 infants, toddlers and preschool children each day. The CC also provides opportunities for SFSU students from a variety of disciplines such as child and adolescent development, consumer family science, education, kinesiology and psychology to work, observe, volunteer or intern on site. Faculty and graduate student research is encouraged when it seeks to improve best practices in early care and education and child development theory. The Children's Campus is staffed with highly qualified professionals in order to meet state licensing and NAEYC Accreditation requirements. The center is supported by an Advisory Council of participating parents, faculty, and staff.
