NROCRC: Need. Care. Potential.
The Nepean, Rideau and Osgoode Community Resource Centre (NROCRC) is a community based social service centre working in partnership with individuals, families and communities to promote optimum health and quality of life. NROCRC is non-profit charitable organization and our services and programs are free.
The community our agency serves is large, diverse and mobile. Immigrant families, families new to the area, youth, and a growing seniors population, present a wide variety of needs. NROCRC supports the largest population-over 200,000 people-and serves the largest physical territory of all of Ottawa's community resource centres.
