Who We Are

PCEH Fact Sheet

MISSION STATEMENT
To work toward the elimination of homelessness by encouraging the development of necessary resources in the public and private sectors including housing, income, health care and other basic life supports and by raising and maintaining public awareness of the causes of homelessness in a way that contributes to its elimination.

HISTORY
The Philadelphia Committee to End Homelessness (PCEH) was established in late 1981 by a group of Center City Philadelphians who convened a city-wide conference to examine ways to stem the tide of homelessness. PCEH became a non-profit corporation in 1982. Since that time, PCEH has employed a three-pronged strategy to eliminate homelessness in Philadelphia.
