Dear NISD Supporter,

It takes a lot of community support to keep our 501c3 non-profit operational. As you consider the charities that you support, we respectfully invite you to consider giving  tax-deductible donation to further our work. Your charitable donation will be used to ensure that we can continue to offer low-cost mental health services to those in need and to train culturally-responsive therapists to support healthy lives and communities.

We welcome your tax-deductible donations. Use one of the links to the right or make a check payable to Narrative Initiatives San Diego (NISD):
3636 Fifth Avenue, Suite 203, San Diego, CA 92103

We are excited to share a few highlights of our work:

Every year NISD serves more than 300 clients, and in 2024 we conducted over 4000 low-cost counseling sessions. Many of our clients do not have access to insurance or Medi-cal coverage, or cannot pay the high fees associated with mental health services. Our counseling training center includes a dozen pre-licensed and licensed marriage & family therapists (MFTs) who provide community-based mental health services. Our center is also supported by licensed therapists who donate their time to mentor our trainees and interns, as well as supervision candidates training to be AAMFT-Approved Supervisors. 

Additionally, NISD continues to build and sustain collaborative partnerships with various community organizations, university counseling centers, and training & research institutes to support our mission of providing high-quality, affordable counseling to communities in need.

Your charitable donation will help us to continue this important work.

With our deep gratitude,

Dr. Jan Ewing, Ph.D., LMFT – Founder & Co-Director
Mona Klausing, M.S., LMFT – Co-Director
