Rooted in Community

Founded in 1981, ROCS began with a deep commitment to supporting residents in Charles Mix County. Over the years, our passion for helping underserved communities has grown, and today we proudly serve 28 counties across South-Central and South-Eastern South Dakota.

​

At ROCS, we believe in the power of community and the strength found in rural areas that often face significant challenges. From limited access to resources to the isolation felt by many, we’re driven to create real, lasting change. We focus on partnerships and community support to address these disparities and provide practical, sustainable solutions to meet the needs of our neighbors.​
