About SAN FRANCISCO EARLY CARE EDUCATORS RESOURCE PROGRAM
San Francisco Early Care Educators Resource Program (operating as Early Care Educators of San Francisco, ECESF) is an educator-led 501(c)(3) nonprofit that organizes early care and education (ECE) workers across San Francisco to inform policy, build leadership, and improve working conditions that underlie high-quality care. ECESF runs regular educator gatherings, leadership circles, trainings, and policy-focused convenings in multiple languages to surface educator priorities and shape local and state ECE decisions. The organization’s EIN (47-2219433) is publicly associated with the group’s website and nonprofit filings, and ECESF is an active partner in citywide ECE coalitions. In the last several years ECESF has maintained recurring citywide meetings and retreats, contributed educator testimony and materials for policy campaigns, and in early 2026 conducted an active recruitment for a full-time Director to expand its program and organizational capacity.
Notable achievements
Local ballot advocacy (Baby/Prop C)
Played a contributing leadership role in city-level advocacy that supported passage and defense of San Francisco’s Proposition C (commonly called "Baby Prop C"), helping establish dedicated local funding and shaping how those funds are directed to early care and education.
Sustained educator-led gatherings
Organized recurring All-ECESF meetings, annual retreats, and topical workshops (including multilingual presentations and inclusion-focused sessions) that consistently convene front-line educators to set priorities, share practice, and prepare educator testimony for policy forums (ongoing through 2023–2026).
Organizational capacity building
Demonstrated growth and institutional development by publicly recruiting a full-time Director in early 2026 and continuing to operate as an independent 501(c)(3) with programmatic and fundraising activity to support educator leadership and outreach.
