About RCMA
At RCMA, we make the dreams of children in migrant working and low-income families our focus. That means making sure anything that impacts their learning is taken care of. From early childhood education to health care assistance to supplying WiFi hotspots and tablets for homework, we take a holistic approach that cares for the entire child – including a helping hand for their parents.
Emergency Preparedness
Our top priority is safety
RCMA continues to monitor emergencies like COVID-19 and hurricanes that impact the communities we serve. Our top priority is the safety of our employees and our enrolled children and their families. In all emergency situations, please follow the guidance provided by local health and emergency officials, the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and the World Health Organization.
RCMA COMMUNITY IMPACT
Your time impact lives
Over the last 60 years, RCMA has worked hand-in-hand with families to help them leverage their strengths and overcome the challenges seasonal migrant work presents for the education of their children. With our collaboration, over 40,000 children have made quality education a reality.
Helping thousands of children across 20 counties requires a lot of space to serve them in. We’ve grown to 54 child development centers, and with the support of our donors, we can broaden our positive impact to a greater number and variety of communities where underprivileged children need educational resources.
Our family of employees at RCMA is our greatest resource. These dedicated and passionate souls provide the day-in, day-out work that’s necessary to help dreams come to life for thousands of children and their families every year. Many of us here at RCMA were alumni ourselves, and now we get to serve with gratitude families just like ours.
RCMA operates 3 charter schools and is growing! Serving more than 560 students, RCMA’s charter school program extends RCMA’s holistic approach to learning and commitment to excellence in education, from kindergarten through the 8th grade.
FACES OF CHANGE
The children who’ve brightened our centers with their eagerness to learn have gone on to even brighter futures. Here are some of their stories of transformation from working in the fields to achieving the highest levels of education.
