CIIS is pleased to announce that the J.C. Kellogg Family Foundation has generously pledged to match all gifts on a dollar-to-dollar basis to three of the Institute's counseling centers that serve as training facilities for master's degree students. The challenge grant is for up to $50,000 and will run from March 1, 2004 through March 1, 2005.

Conveniently located in San Francisco neighborhoods, the three counseling centers that serve master's degree counseling psychology students are: two Integral Counseling Centers (2140 Pierce Street and 1782 Church Street) and the Center for Somatic Psychotherapy (310 Third Avenue).

The centers serve a critical function to the students of CIIS, providing graduate students and postgraduate interns with much-needed practicum opportunities. The centers also play an important role in the wider San Francisco Bay Area community. Since 1968, CIIS's counseling centers have offered leading edge, mind-body-spirit psychotherapy to individuals, couples, and families. Each year, thousands of clients visit the clinics for safe, supportive, and low-cost psychotherapy (the average payment is $30) offered in a variety of languages. Staff therapists—graduate degree students in CIIS's School of Professional Psychology—are well trained in a variety of therapeutic modalities, such as somatic, transpersonal, psychodynamic, and Gestalt, as well as conventional modes of psychotherapy.

Please send your gift toward matching this generous challenge grant to the address below, with "Clinics" on the memo section of the check:
