For more than 40 years, Resources for Community Development (RCD) has been a leading regional nonprofit developer and owner of affordable housing. RCD’s mission is to create and preserve affordable housing for people with the fewest options, to build community and enrich lives. RCD fosters strong, inclusive neighborhoods through strategies that address the health, economic development, education, and housing needs of residents across the community.

Since RCD was established in 1984, we have developed or preserved over 75 communities that provide affordable, high-quality, and service-enriched affordable rental housing to over 3,000 low-income households throughout the Bay Area. RCD is actively growing, with more than 1,000 new units of affordable housing in development or under construction. RCD strives for excellence, and we are seeking an outstanding candidate to join our team.

“What I really love about RCD is how much positive impact we have in people’s lives just by where we build, how we design, and the services we offer. It’s incredibly motivating to open the doors to residents and watch them thrive.” –Dan Sawislak, Executive Director
