Who is 
?
San Francisco Sex Information (SFSI) trains people to become sex educators and operates a free information and referral switchboard.
We provide free, confidential, accurate, non-judgmental information about sex and reproductive health.
If you have a question about sex, we'll either answer it or refer you to someone who can.
Our volunteers undergo extensive training in all aspects of human sexuality, including reproduction, birth control, safer sex practices, HIV and other STDs, sexual identity, and gender identity.

| Your donation will support free, accurate, anonymous, nonjudgmental information about sex. We now accept donations on-line with no minimum donation: 50 cents, $2, $20, or whatever you choose. SFSI is a registered 501(c)3 non-profit. Your donations may be tax-deductible. We accept credit cards, electronic checks, or PayPal accounts.
We are supported almost exclusively by private contributions and volunteer effort.
If you wanted to help us out, please tell friends, teachers, and medical professionals about us. You can also volunteer with us. You can also request flyers or business cards with SFSI's contact information and distribute them.

| Everyone at SFSI is a volunteer.
Whether we're answering telephones at the switchboard, distributing information at public events, teaching at our human sexuality class, or speaking about sexuality at a local school, we're volunteering our time and energy.
Why you'd want to volunteer? There are lots of reasons!
- We believe in the free availability of sex information.
- We want to learn more about our own and other people's sexuality.
- We like to meet interesting, intelligent people.
- It feels good to give something to the community.
... and of course, because it's fun!
All of our volunteers take our class in human sexuality before going on to answer telephones or do other work for the organization. If you're interested in volunteering with us, please see the Training page to submit an application.
