About FCCP

OUR MISSION
To advance social justice and equality for all Franklin County, PA residents.

Franklin County Coalition for Progress (FCCP) is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization. We care about building a community where everyone is accepted and welcomed; a community where differences are valued and seen as strengths and opportunities. 

​

We are a diverse group of Franklin County residents with the common vision of a flourishing community that welcomes all.

WHAT WE DO

We work with a variety of community partners to increase social and civic competencies to empower individuals to use their voice and rights to help themselves, and others. Moving from conversations to action takes skills, knowledge and relationships.

 

Over the last several years, we organized several events and programs that laid the groundwork for where we are today. You can follow the progression of our formation by clicking on these past events, where links are available:
