About MRDC

Keep us ever mindful of the needs of others

Agency Mission

Providing the resources that promote self-sufficiency in low-income families and build strong, sustainable communities throughout Maryland.

What We Do

MRDC provides services to promote education, equality, and the environment in rural Maryland. We do this by:

  • operating Head Start centers in several counties
  • providing transportation services to medical assistance recipients, employers, and for job training and recreational activities
  • providing counseling and assitance in landlord/tenant relations and eviction prevention
  • administering the Section 8 housing programs for several counties and provide first-time homebuyer and rental assistance
  • working with community based organizations and local governments to provide safe water and waste water, solid waste, and local leadership development services
  • sponsoring the State of Maryland Circuit Rider Town Management Program, bringing professional administrative and management services to small, rural towns on a part-time, shared-cost basis

MRDC in 2007

The Year 2007 was a year filled with challenges and growth for the agency. A record number of families and communities were assisted through a comprehensive array of services unmatched by any other non-profit serving our state.
