In this paper, we consider a DC (difference of convex) programming problem with joint chance constraints (JCCDCP). We propose a DC function to approximate the constrained function and a corresponding DC program ($\textrm{P}_{\varepsilon}$) to approximate the JCCDCP. Under some mild assumptions, we show that the solution of Problem ($\textrm{P}_{\varepsilon}$) converges to the solution of JCCDCP when $\varepsilon\downarrow 0$. A sequential convex program method is constructed to solve the Problem ($\textrm{P}_{\varepsilon}$). At each iteration a convex program is solved based on the Monte Carlo method, and the generated optimal sequence is proved to converge to the stationary point of Problem ($\textrm{P}_{\varepsilon}$).
Keywords: joint chance constraints., DC programming, Sequential convex approximation approach.
