Bay Area Children First (BACF) helps families in difficult circumstances to nurture their young children. Founded in 1994 by Berkeley psychotherapist and Susan Regan, MFT, Bay Area Children First recently opened their new Berkeley offices at the intersection of Rose Street and Shattuck Avenue, with the purpose of providing Alameda County parents and children the same services it offers San Francisco families. The staff is composed of licensed clinicians and a select group of post-master interns who are supervised by licensed therapists. This professional mix gives families affordable yet highly targeted and focused support programs. The BACF staff counsel families separated by divorce, disease, death and internment. They also conduct psycho-educational classes, provide counseling services to government agencies, and manage court-mandated reunification programs.
