Resources For Community Development

Asset management:rcd's portfolio of 64 properties is managed by the asset management department. The department's objectives fall into two categories, operational and financial. Operational goals include maintaining projects in safe, habitable and rentable conditions and maintaining tenant satisfaction. Financial goals include maintaining positive cash flow and preserving healthy reserves and managing its use for general operations and contingencies. Portfolio rehabilitation efforts combine these two areas, adding new funding sources to pay for improvements which extend the properties' useful lives.

Resident services program: rcd's resident services program addresses the many challenges that vulnerable populations face in retaining their housing and moving forward socially and economically. Rcd provides individual counseling through social services partnerships and service referrals as well as coordination of onsite service programs for residents. In addition rcd provides after school programs for youth, computer training, educational workshops, and recreational and social activities.

Community development:rcd's community development initiative extends beyond our developments to the surrounding neighborhoods. Using placemaking strategies that allow residents to define and develop what will strengthen their neighborhoods, we help support low-income communities as they respond to opportunities and challenges.
