HCV Elimination

End Hep C SF is a multi-sector collective impact* initiative that utilizes evidence-based practices, community wisdom, and the creative leveraging of resources to work toward hepatitis C elimination in San Francisco. Building on the city’s extensive history of innovative and ambitious public health efforts, End Hep C SF addresses an epidemic that remains one of the leading causes of liver-related disease and mortality in the United States.1

Our mission is to support all San Franciscans living with and/or at risk for hepatitis C to maximize their health and wellness. We achieve this through education, prevention, testing, linkage, and treatment to reduce morbidity, mortality, and stigma related to hepatitis C.

*Collective Impact  is a framework to tackle deeply entrenched and complex social problems. It is an innovative and structured approach to making collaboration work across government, business, philanthropy, non-profit organizations and citizens to achieve significant and lasting social change.
