Samoan Community Development Center (SCDC) was founded in 1991 in San Francisco, CA as a 501c 3. SCDC was originally developed to fill the needs for the Samoan community and Pacific Islanders alike, who migrated to the United States. In time, the needs in our Pacific Islander became greater, calling for more services. SCDC is the only funded organization in San Francisco that serves Samoans and other Pacific Islanders.

“O tama a manu e fafaga i fuga o la’au, ae o fanau a tagata e fafaga i upu”
Language and culture are sustenance for our children
