The largest non-profit child-care provider in Florida, RCMA is a leader in high-quality early childhood services. More than half of RCMAs child-care centers are nationally accredited.A non-sectarian association, RCMA is built on principles of incorporating the family into child development, health care and educational activities and hiring and training staff from the communities served.This provides security for the parents, knowing their cultures are respected while their children are being prepared to enter school. For the children, it imparts the strengths of both their own ethnic origins and those of the diverse society they are joining.Overseeing RCMA is a volunteer Board of Directors, drawn from the geographic regions where RCMA operates and the constituencies served.RCMA is funded by local, state and federal grants, as well as the generosity of the United Way, agribusiness and other corporations, community foundations and individuals. Volunteers and donors are always welcome.
