What
is RC&D? The Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) Council is
a partnership between the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and rural communities. It was created to assist local
people in planning and carrying out activities that conserve natural resources, support economic development, enhance the
environment, and improve the standard of living for all citizens. The partnership is made up of locally organized, led and
sponsored groups called RC&D Councils which receive technical and financial support from the USDA. Each Council identifies
problems, develops strategies and implements projects to benefit the community. A broad range of public and private entities
collaborate to assist RC&D Councils in achieving goals and objectives. All programs and
assistance of the RC & D Council are available without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age,
disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and marital or family status. To request assistance for a project in your community,
please complete the Request for Project Assistance and return it to the Council.
