About PACE


Our Mission

PACE’s mission is to strengthen the community-based nonprofit organizations that potentially or demonstrably can assist African American and economically disadvantaged communities to identify their needs and take effective action.

Our Vision

We envision a future where all residents of Pittsburgh and the surrounding region can draw upon stable, effective community-based assistance to strengthen their neighborhoods and improve their quality of life.
