PGSCC’s America

PGSCC is committed to Lifting Up America's Cities, Neighborhoods and Families

The United States Department of Labor (2024) and the Bureau of Labor Statistics (2025) report that economic uncertainty, the rapid adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), and shifting worker demographics are reshaping today’s labor market and America’s workforce. Employers must act quickly and must rethink their strategies for attracting and retaining talent in this dynamic environment. To meet the performance demands of the 21st century, social enterprises will need to employ the best organizational and business practices, and they must hire the best talent. They must also invest in quality technical assistance, professional development training and coaching for optimal outcomes and to create welcoming workplaces, where each employee has an opportunity to excel, and is recognized for his/her humanity and professional contributions.

WHY SOCIAL ENTERPRISE?

Social Enterprise Makes a Positive Difference in the Lives of Americans.

Social enterprisers positively impact cities and neighborhoods by increasing local access to essential resources and services. Whether they are running businesses with a social mission, government offices, a city recreation or housing program, non-profits, a private charity, community groups or organizations, human services agencies, an environmental justice group, or a public school or district office, those who work in social enterprises have the mission or responsibility for serving the American people and that is a special job. Social enterprisers continue to play a vital role in revitalizing families, communities and cities across America, at a time of shrinking resources and commitment to the social good within the private sector and in federal government. Those who foster a welcoming climate within their organizations, those who work to strengthen community bonds and those who help to inspire positive local and national identities provide necessary ingredients for a healthy vibrant society.
