California · public organization records · checked August 2026
Find the kinds of places where an MFT practicum could happen.
Choose a region or county and build a research list from California's public clinical systems and nonprofit records. This atlas tells you what an organization is—not whether it has a practicum seat. Your school must approve the site and hold a written agreement before the hours count.

A candidate setting is not an opening.
No public dataset can tell us whether an organization has a supervisor, a school affiliation, an available seat, or a training program this term. A result belongs on your research list—not on an application list until your program and the organization confirm the facts.

Official clinical systems are stronger evidence of an organization's role. IRS classifications are broader candidate signals. Neither evidence level establishes practicum eligibility or availability.
Three evidence levels, three different claims
The label tells you why a record is here.
57 county plans
Official behavioral health systems listed by California DHCS. This establishes the public system—not a placement.
218 health-center organizations
Organizations operating sites in HRSA's public health-center data. A clinical system is not proof of an MFT training arrangement.
1,766 nonprofit candidates
Active California exempt organizations with self-reported clinical mental-health classifications. This is the broad research shelf, not a recommendation.
