Resources for Human Development

Resources for Human Development

Manages extensive social services programs nationwide

Overview

Resources for Human Development coordinates and funds a network of over 160 locally managed human services programs across 14 states to help vulnerable people gain independence. It provides oversight, funding, and direct support to partner agencies so they can offer counseling, housing help, employment services, healthcare access, and wraparound supports tailored to local communities. The organization differentiates itself with a wide multi-state footprint and by delivering a broad, community-based mix of services rather than relying on a single program. Its goal is to improve quality of life and self-sufficiency for the most vulnerable by expanding access to comprehensive community supports.
