Resource Conservation & Development (RC&D) is a program administered by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), with funding from the US Department of Agriculture (now through the 2002 Farm Bill). The RC&D program is administered within 80% of the United States (including its territories), and there are over 375 RC&D Councils nationwide.

Started in 1962, RC&D was designed to partner and link federal, county and local agencies with local community members to set regional goals for conservation initiatives as well as economic development (traditionally to support rural areas, but the program has gone beyond that to include many different types of activities and projects).

*All programs and assistance by the Capital RC&D Area Council and the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service are available without regard to race, color, national origin, gender, religion, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation and marital or family status
