Welcome to the People's Community Development Association of Chicago (PCDAC), an organization committed to fostering community development and empowerment on Chicago's West Side. PCDAC traces its origins to the People's Church of the Harvest, which has been a cornerstone in the area since 1943. Over the decades, the organization has evolved to meet the community's changing needs, tackling challenges such as poverty, crime, and addiction with focused programs designed to inspire hope and provide pathways to success. Since its establishment in 1999, a project of the People's Church of the Harvest Church of God in Christ, PCDAC has actively promoted initiatives that address the fundamental needs of the community, including affordable housing, youth engagement, and workforce development.
At PCDAC, our mission is straightforward yet impactful: to provide meaningful opportunities for returning citizens, at-risk youth, and economically disenfranchised residents of the Greater Westside Community of Chicago. We envision a future where each individual has the tools and support needed to become economically independent, property-owning members of a thriving community.
