Inspired by her mother's commitment to service, Monica Boyd began her community work with the Feeding Ministry at her church, cooking free meals for families in Sobrante Park, Oakland, California. Ms. Boyd first came to RCF as a member of Americorps, in partnership with Bay Area LISC. She has additional work experience in the corporate field, including office administration and housing/property management. Ms. Boyd holds a Certificate of Completion from the Property Management Training Institute, and has completed work toward her AA degree at Contra Costa College.

Ms. Boyd has lived and worked in our community for over nine years. She is a single mother of three wonderful children. When she is not working, Ms. Boyd enjoys singing and volunteering in the service of children and families. She has received an award for Community Service from the Santa Fe Neighborhood Council of Richmond and Special Recongitions from CA State Assemblywoman Fiona Ma and the U.S. House of Representatives.
