Resources for Community Development
Resources for Community Development (RCD) creates and preserves housing for people with the fewest options, to build community and enrich lives. We provide safe, quality homes that are affordable to over 4,500 individuals and families who are low-income so they can continue to live, work and play here in the Bay Area. RCD’s affordable, quality housing and services provide benefits to the whole community as well as individual households. • It promotes inclusive, healthy, complete communities. • It builds economic strength through jobs and local spending. • It makes a long term contribution to environmental quality and sustainability. • It gives the next generations of residents the opportunity for a strong and stable start in life. Since it was founded in 1984, RCD has developed 2,500 homes for low to moderate-income residents in more than 65 communities in the Bay Area region. We have an inclusive model of housing development that ensures that people with special needs are part of our communities. Almost one third of our units are set aside for people with special needs.
