Chesapeake Neighbors, an Arc Central Chesapeake Region company committed to providing safe, accessible, and affordable housing in Maryland, and Board Chair Jonathon Rondeau are pleased to welcome Rasheeda McCrea to the Chesapeake Neighbors board of directors.

“We are thrilled to welcome Rasheeda to our Board,” said Judi Olinger, Executive Director of Chesapeake Neighbors. “She is an energetic and motivated person who lives in one of Chesapeake Neighbors’ homes in Pasadena, so she will undoubtedly bring important lived experience and perspective to our decision-making as a Board.”

Rasheeda is a thoughtful and compassionate community member who understands the importance of supporting those in our communities who need it most. She has extensive experience volunteering her time at important community organizations such as food pantries and currently works at the World of Care childcare center through Kennedy Krieger.

“I am someone who enjoys using my time to help others succeed,” said Rasheeda, “and I am excited to give my time to Chesapeake Neighbors because I know how many other people like me benefit from Chesapeake Neighbors’ success.”

Rasheeda is ready to lend her perspective on all things related to affordable housing as someone who understands the many needs of the people in our communities—such as food, childcare, and housing—and how those needs intersect. She is committed to making a difference, listening to different opinions, and being part of the important work Chesapeake Neighbors does every day for the good of all Marylanders.
