PACDC’s 2020 Magazine explores the role of community developers as both story tellers and guardians of their neighborhood’s history.

PACDC released a policy agenda calling for protections for renters, home owners, small businesses, and the non-profits that serve them, to help Philadelphia make it through the immediate COVID-19 crisis.

Thankful, humbled and yes, proud too. That is how we at PACDC feel collectively as we reflect back on our last year and the accomplishments of our members to advance a more equitable and vibrant Philadelphia. Please read our annual report to learn more about our efforts in FY 2019.

PACDC’s 2019 Magazine explores the connection between community development and improving health outcomes in our communities.

PACDC’s 2018 Magazine explores how residents, community development practitioners, and artists are using creativity to help address complex neighborhood issues. It also provides insight for this work in the Guidebook for Arts and Community Development and highlights this year’s award winners and finalists.

The Policy Agenda makes a series of recommendations on how we can strengthen our neighborhood shopping districts and was developed by PACDC’s Commercial Corridor Working Group, which is made up of twenty PACDC member organizations that work on-the-ground to strengthen our neighborhood corridors and small businesses.
