"The staff of Sunset Youth Services lives in the community they serve and, consequently, are very invested in the neighborhood. Many of the services they provide are non-funded and informal and the staff consistently goes above and beyond the call of duty in order to serve the individuals and families in their programs." -Assemblywoman Fiona Ma, Majority Whip, San Francisco Assembly.

"Staff is automatically responsive to the needs of their clients in detention and are excellent about vesting them and providing emotional support." -Julie Posadas, Coordinator of Girls Services, San Francisco Juvenile Probation Department.

"One thing I like about the Center is its staff. There is always someone to talk to when you need them. Also there are lots of things to do. You can play pool, ping-pong, and PlayStation 2. I also like hanging out with my friends. Everybody has a friend here." -Monique Thomas, age 13
