Northeast Colorado Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D)

Mission Statement

- Provide and coordinate leadership and partnerships to promote the conservation and sustainable use of our natural and human resources, fostering entrepreneurial ship and economic development in Northeastern Colorado.

- The RC&D is a unique combination of private enterprise and Federal Assistance that encourages the blending of natural resources use with local economic and social values. Program objectives address improving the quality of life, including social, economic and environmental concerns; continuing prudent use of natural resources; strengthening local citizens' ability to utilize available sources of assistance through Federal and state agencies, and other public and private entities.

- Basic support provided to designated RC&D areas by USDA is primarily through the Natural Resources Conservation Service and includes a RC&D Coordinator, office administrator, office space, some supplies and a vehicle.

- The USDA RC&D Program provides assistance to locally controlled, independent RC&D Councils , which are nonprofit organizations (501©3). The RC&D organization is the controlling local entity for the RC&D efforts in the region. RC&D, the federal program works in close partnership with the RC&D, the local nonprofit entity.
