Mission

The Mission of the Aliquippa Alliance for Unity and Development:

“to ensure the delivery of human services, workforce development and supplemental public school opportunities for Aliquippa and the surrounding area.”

History

The Aliquippa Alliance for Unity and Development (AAUD) has provided leadership in community and economic development since 1984. The AAUD was created in response one of the largest cases of de-industrialization in US history - the closing of LTV Corporation’s Aliquippa Works. The loss of 14,000 steel jobs left the city devastated. Located in the heart of Aliquippa, PA, the AAUD has insured access to human service programs, housing, medical care, banking services, business financial assistance, educational opportunities, the arts, and workforce development for those in need. The AAUD continues to serve as a strong voice of advocacy for community recovery initiatives.

In all areas, the Aliquippa Alliance for Unity and Development collaborates with other agencies, businesses, and individuals who share the goal of making life better for the citizens of Aliquippa and the surrounding area.
