About Rankin Christian Center
Our Mission
The Rankin Christian Center is a non-profit, faith based community social service agency, primarily focusing on serving the underserved communities in the Mon Valley of Allegheny County. Our agency houses program services to at-risk individuals from birth to senior citizens. Through our comprehensive network of service delivery we provide a holistic approach to individuals and families, enhancing their opportunities to develop physically, mentally, and spiritually, thereby allowing us the opportunity to positively impact the future of those we serve and ultimately our region.
History of the RCC
•The Agency has always viewed itself as part of the community and has adapted to the changes and needs of the community.
•In the 1920’s and thirties the Agency impacted the community as the issues were immigration and migration.
•In the 1940’s, two African American young ladies, Dorothy Height and Mabel Lewis impacted the community as the issue was integration at the Center.
•In the 50’s a great fire destroyed several blocks of the Rankin community. Our warmth and hospitality impacted a devastated Rankin.
•In the sixties and seventies the issues turned to public schools and quality education.
•No matter the decade or the issue the Agency continues to be a voice in the community, impacting lives for a brighter future.
