The Community Education Development Association (CEDA) is a non-profit inner city community development organization that was established in 1979. CEDA strives to meet the educational needs of our community, focusing on advocacy and programming that addresses the inadequacies of the education system in serving the members of our community. We recognize that these inadequacies exist within a larger context of social and economic inequality as well as both societal and institutionalized racism and we are committed to raising awareness of this context both within and beyond the community that we serve.

Our Vision is that our students will thrive in a global community while nurturing the call to love and serve others. All funds raised through the Education Foundation are allocated back to: -Essential Pieces Hands Up Award -Student Scholarships -Special Project Funding -Grande Prairie Schools Snack Program - Avondale, Hillside and St. Clement Schools
