To help achieve the goal of tribal self-sufficiency, the Pechanga Band of Indians established the Pechanga Development Corporation (PDC) in 1994.  A branch of the Pechanga tribal government, PDC was created for the purpose of economic development and improving the business, financial and general welfare of the Pechanga Tribe.  The PDC is led by a five-member board of directors that is elected to two-year terms by Pechanga Citizens.
