About ACF
The Association of the Clinical Faculty, also known as ACF, is an organization
connected to the UCSF School of Medicine, representing medical doctors
who have volunteer clinical faculty status at UCSF. Clinical faculty members
volunteer their time to teach students and residents, either in their
office or on campus. The ACF is an advocacy and networking group that
addresses issues faced by clinical faculty members.
The Association of the Clinical Faculty is a UCSF support group and
unincorporated nonprofit association [through the UCSF Foundation].
It is a non-political organization with the following objectives:
- To support the teaching activities of the volunteer clinical faculty
in the School of Medicine;
- To finance projects that organize, educate, and assist members of
the clinical faculty in improving education and professional services
for the university;
- To provide channels of communication between clinical faculty and
other segments of the medical school, e.g. administration, academic
senate, house staff, students, and full-time faculty for mutual welfare
of the medical school;
- To promote clinical faculty participation in policy-making in the
medical school and within individual departments; and
- To suggest members to the administration and medical school for
medical center committees.
