Our story
A neighborhood promise, kept.
The R.D.A. Foundation was created by Janita Sessoms, a Registered Nurse originally from Jersey City, NJ currently residing in Atlanta, GA. The R.D.A. Foundation was named after the founder’s late mother, who not only taught Janita what it means to give back but led by example.
Meet the founder"The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members."
— Coretta Scott King
