About Progressive Life Center

History

The Progressive Life Center was founded in 1983, by Dr. Frederick Phillips.  The first program, with five staff, provided an array of community based services to adjudicated African American youth and their families in Washington, D.C.; the focus was on meeting their mental health needs from a cultural and spiritual based approach.  PLC is today working in the District of Columbia; Baltimore, MD; Prince George’s County, MD; Montgomery County, MD;  Philadelphia, PA; Wilmington, DE; and Accra, Ghana to help individuals and families recognize and maximize their inner resources and strengths, enhance their relationships, and function harmoniously in the broader environment.

 PLC is a 501 (c)(3) non-profit organization and is licensed as a child placement agency in the State of Maryland, District of Columbia, State of Delaware, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania; further PLC is accredited by the Council on Accreditation.

 In 23 years of service, PLC has developed a rich tapestry of behavioral and mental health services combining core principles of ancient African worldview with Western techniques of humanistic psychology targeting troubled young people and families.
