“Enhancing lives through conservation and community services”
Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) is a unique program that helps people protect and develop their economic, natural, and social resources in was that improve their area’s economy, environment, and quality of life. Local RC&D Councils provide ways for people to plan and implement projects that will make their communities better places to live.
RC&D is based on the idea that local people know what their communities need and can create solutions that will really work. Groups of local volunteers establish RC&D Councils, which represent sponsoring organizations within multi-county region. Council Directors volunteer their time to address important issues in their communities, and to build a better life for themselves and others. The strength of the RC&D Program is in local people working together to solve their own problems. The development of local leadership and community pride is a key part of RC&D projects and successes.
All RC&D’s receive staffing and financial support from the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS), which provides the Coordinator to work with the Council RC&D Coordinators who works closely with the Council to identify problems, establish goals and objectives, build strategies, and implement plans.
