Mission:To enhance and promote overall quality of life in and around the Acadian region. Vision: The Acadiana RC&D Council's vision is to address the social, environmental and economical concerns of South Central Louisiana. Its primary focus is on the conservation, development and utilization of natural resources. The Resource Conservation and Development Program (RC&D) is a voluntary program that helps people protect and develop their economic, natural, and social resources. The program is administered by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), in cooperation with other USDA agencies. RC&D objectives focus on improving the quality of life of residents in designated regions. The RC&D program unites people at a grass-roots level, relying on volunteers and civic leaders to revitalize and build communities through cooperative projects.
