Our Work Areas

Actively Engaged & Informed Sector-Wide Membership Community

PCE expands collaborative engagement and trust-building by bringing together a spectrum of different voices to combat a specific problem, creating a shared sense of ownership and ultimately maximizing our collective resources in order to generate solutions. Through sector-wide engagement, PCE is ensuring no charter school leader operates in isolation, and without access to an informed and active support community.  

Bi-Partisan Public Policy & Coalition Building 

PCE serves as the nexus for solution oriented bi-partisan charter school policy, legislation and coalition building in Pennsylvania. Achieving our policy and legislative goals requires targeted relationship building at both the state and local levels to strengthen ties with key allies, build common ground and cultivate leaders.

Grassroots Advocacy & City-Wide Public-Private Sector Engagement

PCE serves as the central voice, city-wide community gateway, and sector-wide advocate to accelerate the flow of knowledge, information and opportunities between Member school communities and the region’s top public/private institutions, subject matter experts, and cutting edge resources. PCE proactively seeks out and initiates strategic opportunities to advocate on behalf of, and champion the sector to ensure charters receive equal and equitable access to critical resources and opportunity.
