Established in 2005, RCA is a 501(c)3 non-profit, grass-roots organization comprised of volunteers from the Rosedale & Kingman Park neighborhoods and adjacent communities in Northeast Washington, D.C.
RCA was founded to help residents collaborate on health, safety and quality-of-life issues effecting the Rosedale & Kingman Park community.
But it’s with a mixture of pride and embarrassment that I hear myself called an urban pioneer. Because, of course, this is a long-settled neighborhood. It’s only new to me. That is my favorite part from this piece. I see myself as a neighbor who wants to be a good citizen/neighbor. I wouldn't have bought a house in a poorly designed/functioning neighborhood so I am not hear to save it, it doesn't need to be saved. I am just doing my part.
