Rockingham County, NH

Welcome to Rockingham Community Action (RCA).  RCA is one of about 1,000 members in the National Community Action Partnership, and one of the six Community Action Agencies in New Hampshire.  In all of the programming we develop and in each the services we provide, we endeavor every day to live that Promise of Community Action at the top of this page.

In each of the 37 communities of Rockingham County, RCA is striving to make a difference, and flesh out that promise to “change people’s lives” and make our corner of America “a better place to live.”  We have done so for 46 years, and intend to do so for many years into the future.

We invite you to look through our services and programs, learn a bit more about Community Action and what we do.  Perhaps you have needed assistance in the past, or are currently using a service of Community Action. Or, you might know someone who could benefit from one of the programs and services outlined on these pages, or you might be willing to help out in an area you see identified here.

Whatever your circumstances, we hope you find what you are looking for on these pages.

Thanks for “visiting” with us, and let us know what you think of the site.  We are proud to be part of the community that is Rockingham County!
