Keeping Families Close

At RMHC of the Capital Region, we provide essential services that remove barriers, strengthen families and promote healing when children need healthcare.

After nine years as a dedicated member of the Board of Directors at Ronald McDonald House Charities of the Capital Region, Marty Shields’ final term of service will come to a close this June.
In his final act of board leadership, he is inviting friends and colleagues to support “The House That Love Built” – ensuring that the important work happening at RMHC today will continue well into the future.

What We Do

Through our core programs, we offer access to quality health care with a family-centered approach. Our team works hard to ensure that families are fully supported and actively involved in every aspect of their children’s care.
