LOVE IN ACTION FOR SIXTY YEARS

This is a place of hope, meaning and purpose. Visit GLIDE in San Francisco and become a part of something bigger – a movement that is changing lives.

GLIDE is a nationally recognized center for social justice, dedicated to fighting systemic injustices, creating pathways out of poverty and crisis, and transforming lives. Through our integrated comprehensive services, advocacy initiatives, and inclusive community, we empower individuals, families and children to achieve stability and thrive.

GLIDE is on the forefront of addressing some of society’s most pressing issues, including poverty, housing and homelessness, and racial and social justice.

This Women’s History Month, we celebrate and honor the women who came before us and those around us today for their leadership, vision, and the many ways they have shaped our communities. From trailblazers who broke barriers to the everyday change-makers who uplift and inspire, their contributions continue to pave the way for a more just and equitable world. We have a dynamic lineup of events and celebrations planned to recognize their impact, share stories, and foster meaningful conversations. Stay tuned for more details—we can’t wait to celebrate with you!

Upcoming Events!

Rabbi’s Story of Rwandan Orphans Finding Love and Acceptance
