PNCC works with the Pilsen Education Task Force (PETF) to help students and parents of under-served communities in Pilsen, Little Village, Brighton Park, Gage Park, McKinley Park and Back of the Yards to improve the secondary education graduation rates, post-secondary education enrollment, civic involvement, and literacy rates.

The PETF is composed of area grammar school and high school administration, university representatives, parents and other Pilsen organizations.  The PETF is working on issues that concern the community on all grade levels. Every October, the PETF (consisting of GMC) holds an Education Summit every year geared towards educating  parents about higher education, and on how to speak to their children about education, health, drugs, and sex education at an early age.

PNCC works directly with them through Pilsen Education Planning Committee (PEPC), which is made up of five task forces: Pilsen Housing, Pilsen Economic, Pilsen Community and Family, Pilsen Community Image, and the Pilsen Education. The purpose of the Pilsen Planning Committee is to construct  a strong Mexican community that is secure and healthy for all families while maintaining  the character and history of Pilsen.

In addition, some of the educational opportunities offered through PNCC include:

Scholarship
College Fair
ACT Prep Courses
Internships
