- We are a non-profit, non-governmental agency organized by citizens to assist people in improving their quality of life in the East Piedmont area. We achieve this through development of human and natural resources.
- We are a self-directed rural development organization.
- We are governed by a local council, which defines problems and set priorities for assistance.
- Each council has a RC&D coordinator provided by the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS).
- RC&D council members represent counties, towns, conservation districts, and local communities.
