In 1998, two coaches sat around a small table at the City Line Diner imagining what a community of coaches in Philadelphia might look like. This small gathering quickly blossomed into three members and then four. And then before you know it, a name and a larger venue needed to be chosen.

Today we’re known as the Philadelphia Area Coaches Alliance (PACA), boast an active membership of 140, an affiliate membership of over 475 and are known as the place for professional coaches. We support professional coaches with interests in executive coaching, corporate coaching, business coaching, group coaching, individual coaching, life coaching and more!

Whether you are already a coach, looking for one, seeking to become one or simply investigating the profession and services known as coaching, we hope the resources on this site will be of value to you and entice you to learn more. Accept our invitation to come in, make yourself at home, explore, discover, learn and grow.
