The Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center has the mission to support excellence in patient care and innovation. Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center (ZSFG) is the preeminent provider of outstanding mental and behavioral health care in the Bay Area. ZSFG is on the front lines of this health crisis with San Francisco’s only 24/7 emergency department, providing a strong safety net and compassionate care while leading the charge for innovative mental and behavioral health treatments.

 

Serving more than 8,000 psychiatric patients each year, ZSFG provides acute care and also links to
ongoing care in the community. More than 60% of our patients experience homelessness, housing
instability, or incarceration, which necessitates a focus on caring for the whole person and going
beyond the treatment needed in the moment. In addition, ZSFG provides intensive support to more
than 1,000 of the most severely mentally ill clients with prior psychiatric hospitalizations.

​

In 2019, the SFGH Foundation responded to rising mental and behavioral health needs throughout
the city and county of San Francisco by launching the Transform Mental and Behavioral Health Fund
(TMBHF), a multi-year project focused on mental health programs, services, and improvements and
the issue of health equity.
