Our Mission

The mission of the 2nd Century Alliance is to develop and execute a strategy to build the City of Coatesville’s capacity to improve current conditions, stabilize the socio-economic stature of the City, foster economic development, and bring resources and community partners together for these purposes.

The 2nd Century Alliance is a Public/Private Partnership, funded by a collaboration between contributions from the private sector and the Chester County Department of Community Development.
