| PROGRAMS AND SERVICES |
The Rural Nevada Development Corporation (RNDC) is a non-profit development corporation formed in
January 1992 to serve the fifteen (15) rural counties, rural Clark and Washoe counties, and the
twenty-seven (27) Native American tribes of Nevada. RNDC has been responsive to the needs of rural
communities by addressing critical issues such as affordable housing, down payment assistance,
homeowner rehabilitation and small business alternative lending practices and has received certification
from the Department of Treasury as a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI). In 2004,
RNDC expanded its services into rural Clark County, and in April of 2006 programs became available in
rural Washoe County. As part of the general allocations of the Housing and Lending Program dollars,
RNDC has the capability of funding programs on or off sovereign lands to members of federally recognized
tribes.
Small Business Lending
RNDC has established significant loan capital, which it lend to small businesses in need of expansion or
start-up financing in the target areas mentioned above. RNDC has obtained over $5.6 million by various
funding sources such as USDA-Rural Development, The Economic Development Administration, Charles
Schwab Bank, Nevada State Bank, and RNDC funds as well. The Board of Directors has targeted the use
of the funds for businesses in need of expansion financing, fixed assets, purchases, working capital, and
start-up businesses in cities with a population of 25,000 or less. The RNDC loan funds significantly
address the capital gap for rural businesses, and leverage bank participation in rural business loans.
RNDC works closely with the Nevada Commission on Economic Development and the Nevada Small
Business Development Center.
Small Business Technical Assistance
RNDC has made every effort to address the technical assistance needs of small businesses. Along with
several other agencies: White Pine County EDC, Eureka County EDA, Lincoln County Regional
Development, Lander County EDA, Nye County EDA and the Community Business Resource Center and
the Nevada Commission on Economic Development; RNDC has joined forces to establish Nevada Small
Business Development Center (NSBDC) satellite offices to cover White Pine, Southern Lander, Eureka,
Lincoln, Nye, Esmeralda, and rural Clark counties.
Housing Programs
Housing programs offered through RNDC include Homeowner Rehabilitation and Weatherization, Down
Payment Assistance, and multi-family apartment rentals.
The Homeowner Rehabilitation Program assists low-income homeowners with repairs to their home.
These improvements can address any health, safety, energy conservation, or handicap accessibility needs.
The Weatherization Assistance Program utilizes Department of Energy, State, and Utility funds to install
energy conservation measures in low-income households.
The Down Payment Assistance (DPA) deferred loan program assists low-income, first time home buyers
with down payment and eligible closing costs to purchase single-family residential properties meeting
HUD Housing Quality Standards (HQS).
Through partnerships with housing developers, RNDC has constructed multi-family housing projects in
Rural Nevada. These units are developed to provide affordable rental housing in areas where needed for
low-income families.
Native American Program
The Native American Program is available exclusively to individual members of federally recognized tribes
and tribal entities residing in the state of Nevada. These funds are available to finance business ventures
within the rural counties of the state including the reservations. For information regarding the Native
American Program contact Mary Kerner.
