Richland Outreach Center (ROC)

WHY Richland Outreach Center Exists

The Richland Outreach Center exists because organizationally there are concentrated needs within the underserved populations of Richland County, Ohio.

These needs revolve around a segment of families that are often cut out activities, or otherwise have barriers that keep them from participating in their community.

ROC recognized that the gaps leading to less involvement are a sense of belonging, and financial. The gaps created are based on oppressions within our community, such as a lack of inclusion and diversity in schools, work places are homes which leads to minimal growth over time.

We are dedicated to inclusiveness and opportunity that reaches into the pockets of those who do not feel welcome, or have barriers that lead their family to be excluded in the community.

ROC is dedicated to finding and serving the needs of the community and serving them through non-traditional methods such as a drive, a hygiene pantry, a diaper distribution and more.

It is understood that our events, pantries, and even sports clinics come and go. However, it is the participation that the family is able to build up over the course of time to experience community, leading to belonging and inclusiveness and joy.

VISION
The Richland Outreach Center envisions serving the Richland County community by continually evaluating, organizing and meeting the needs of the underserved by volunteerism through events, clinics, and supplying essential life products in order to counteract disconnection from community.

MISSION
The Richland Outreach Center serves through engaging and connecting families in educational opportunities, inclusive community activities and improving others commitment to community.
