Asian Anti-Trafficking Collaborative
Human trafficking in the 21st century is a form of modern day slavery. It is the recruitment and the transportation of persons to another place or country through fraud, threats, coercion, exploitation, or violence for the purpose of forced labor or servitude.  Trafficking victims are forced into different labor sectors, such as homes as domestic servants, restaurants, factories, agriculture, sales, massage parlors, and the sex industry.

AATC is a collaboration of 4 community agencies (API Legal Outreach, Asian Women’s Shelter, Cameron House, and Narika) that provides comprehensive services for trafficked persons.  These include legal assistance, shelter/housing, language access, and social services.

API Family Violence Project
This project is a collaboration of API Legal Outreach, Asian Women’s Shelter, Cameron House, and Victim Services Unit-SF District Attorney’s Office. We are working to bridge the gaps between criminal and civil justice systems and community agencies in ways that are more supportive and empowering to individuals who are victims of domestic violence.  This partnership models the importance of working as a team to provide comprehensive and seamless services to enable survivors to feel safe and reclaim their lives.

Asian Alliance Against Domestic Violence (AAADV)
The Asian Alliance Against Domestic Violence (formerly known as Alliance Against Asian Domestic Violence) was formally established in 1997. AAADV consists of about a dozen community organizations that join together in organizing domestic violence awareness campaigns and in producing educational materials for the Asian and Pacific Islander communities to break the silence and cycle of domestic violence.

Food Stamps
To meet the needs of communities such as Chinatown, the Department of Human Services’ Food Stamps Program is bringing their services to the community and providing culturally sensitive and linguistically competent eligibility workers who can assist those in accessing this service.  This service is a partnership between the San Francisco Department of Human Services’ Food Stamps Program and Cameron House. In the past, one would have to apply for food stamps directly at the Department of Human Services at City Hall in San Francisco, but now this service is provided in Chinatown at Cameron House on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month.

Scheduled appointments must be made. To make an appointment with an eligibility worker, please call (415) 558-4151. Assistance is available in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.

Chinatown Economic Self Sufficiency Coalition
We participate with 17 Chinatown and city wide agencies to look at what jobs and English skills Asian immigrants would need to gain economic self sufficiency through employment.  Access to job training and learning English are areas that are being explored.

Asian Pacific Islander Health Parity Coalition
The API Health Parity Coalition seeks to improve the health and well being of all Asians and Pacific Islanders.  It seeks to address and advocate for services for API  populations that are currently under utilizing services or being over looked by our  health care systems.  

D3 Youth Collaborative
A collaboration of youth agencies who meet monthly to explore ways of working together to improve and collaborate on services for youth in the Chinatown/Northbeach area.   Cross training of staffs from all our agencies and planned activities with youth from all 8 agencies have occurred over the past year.
 
SF Neighborhood Centers Together
A collaboration of 9 Neighborhood Centers located throughout San Francisco have come together to learn from each other and seek funding for capacity building of our respective agencies.  Through funding from California Endowment, Haas Sr., Haas Jr., SF Foundation and MOCD, we have been able to hire an HR consultant who works with all nine agencies on HR issues, and training staff regarding labor laws, supervision, sexual harassment, hiring and interviewing.  Other shared resource areas for the future include IT circuit rider, media or PR, and plant management.
