The Poughkeepsie Children's Cabinet (PCC) is a collective impact organization that was formed in February 2020 to develop a citywide cradle-to-career agenda for children, youth and families in the City of Poughkeepsie, New York.

The PCC emerged as an outcome of the first-ever Poughkeepsie Summit at Harvard University in August of 2019. This first of its kind summit convened more than 20 local officials and nonprofit leaders to discuss community development opportunities related to the City of Poughkeepsie’s future, with a focus on improving opportunities and shifting conditions for children, youth, and families in Poughkeepsie.

The PCC was established to create and catalyze citywide systems of support that ensure all children, youth, and families thrive across all aspects of their lives. By bringing together an entire community of leaders and institutions across sectors, we strive to address Poughkeepsie's pervasive intergenerational challenges of poverty and educational inequities. Together, we are reimagining how decisions that impact children, youth, and families are made.
