Iowa Heartland RC&D
Founded in 1994, Iowa Heartland Resource Conservation and Development (IHRC&D) is non-profit organization affiliated with the United States Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service. Iowa Heartland RC&D serves six central Iowa counties: Dallas, Jasper, Madison, Marion, Polk, and Warren counties. Our mission is to enhance our rural areas and local communities by facilitating grassroots efforts for conservation and sustainable development. Iowa Heartland RC&D is led by local citizens through an RC&D council. A coordinator employed by USDA provides technical assistance to the RC&D council in achieving our mission through the council’s five-year strategic area plan and annual plan of work. Citizens throughout central Iowa assist in setting priorities for the strategic area plan. The RC&D program was created by Congress in the Food and Agricultural Act of 1962 (Public Law 87-703). The purpose of the act was to expand opportunities for conservation districts, local units of government, and individuals to improve their communities in multi-county areas. The stated purpose of the national RC&D program "...is to accelerate the conservation, development, and utilization of natural resources, to improve the general level of economic activity, and to enhance the environment and standard of living in authorized RC&D areas."
