The Developing Communities Project began as an offshoot of the Calumet Community Religious Conference a Catholic social justice group on Chicago's South Side and Northern Indiana. The CCRC was led by Jerry Kellman who hired Barack Obama as the first director of the new DCP in 1985. Like most community organizers, Kellman was influenced by the teachings of Saul Alinsky who began organizing in Chicago in the 1930s and died in 1972. Mr. Kellman is currently a member of the parish staff at St. Mary of the Woods Catholic Church in Chicago where he is responsible for Adult Religious Education.
Obama expanded the base of the DCP by attracting the support of non-Catholic religious leaders in the community.
