Click HERE to view some of the highlights of the 2015 Western RC&D Conference!

The Western RC&D Program consists of over 80 RC&D Councils in the states of Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Utah and Wyoming.  Each RC&D Council is organized and directed by local people to meet local needs. The RC&D Program identifies and solves problems in rural communities that include human, economic and environmental issues. RC&D addresses local problems by obtaining assistance from the private sector, corporations, foundations and all levels of government.

Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) is a unique program that is led by local volunteer councils that help people care for and protect their natural resources in a way that improves the local economy, environment and living standards. RC&D is a way for people to work together to plan and carry out activities that will make their areas a better place to live. 

Our Vision:  A grassroots organization empowering partners to achieve sustainable human and natural resources.

Our Mission:  To enhance the effectiveness of Western RC&D Councils by ensuring communication, training and representation of regional interest to national audiences.
