RHCDA is Regional Housing and Community Development Alliance, a nonprofit organization that creates and supports the alliances that make smart, sustainable neighborhood revitalization possible in the St. Louis region.

"Through funding, financing, training, and just plain hard work, RHCDA has made a tremendous difference in our neighborhood.  When we have questions, they're there.  They give amazing advice.  They stick around.  They even come to our annual neighborhood pot luck dinner, covered dishes in hand."
