Social Development Commission

The Social Development Commission (SDC) in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, was established in 1963 as part of the War on Poverty initiative launched by President Lyndon B. Johnson. Designated as the Community Action Agency for the city and county, SDC is committed to empowering residents by providing essential antipoverty services throughout Southeastern Wisconsin.

With a mission to equip individuals with the resources needed to transcend poverty, SDC focuses on research, collaboration, and advocacy to address social issues. The commission also engages in program incubation and evaluation, while actively promoting inclusivity and tackling systemic racism within the community.
