Our Mission
The Office of the Treasurer & Tax Collector serves as the banker, tax collector, collection agent, and investment officer for the City and County of San Francisco.

Our Vision
We are committed to providing excellent services for taxpayers, customers, and our community. By promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, we are a stronger, smarter, and more informed government agency.

Section Description
The San Francisco Economic Justice Center brings together more than 20 years of first-in-the-nation work to strengthen the financial foundations of families and communities. Housed in the Treasurer’s Office, the Center develops and scales practical, people-centered solutions—redesigning systems so families can start saving early for the future, residents can access safe banking and trusted financial guidance, and unfair fines, fees, and debt no longer trap people in poverty.

Working across city departments, we test new ideas, share what works, and change how public systems operate so they support stability, dignity, and opportunity instead of creating barriers. What began as local innovation has helped shape policy across the country—showing how local government can change the odds and expand opportunity for San Franciscans. Learn more on our website.
