Rolling Plains Management Corporation history

Since 1980, RPMC has operated a rural public transportation system known as SHARP Lines Rural Public Transportation.

The name changed in 1986 when Baylor County was designated as RPCM’s service area and was provided equal seating on the Board of Directors.

RPMC’s Early Child Development services has also included the contract to provide Child Care Management Services in Archer, Baylor, Clay, Cottle, Foard, Hardeman, Jack, Montague, Wichita, Wilbarger and Young Counties since 1990.

In 1992, RPMC was designated as the agency to provide Head Start service in the underserved counties of Archer, Knox and Young.

In 1999, the Community Services and Energy Assistance programs expanded to Archer, Clay, Jack, Montague, Wichita and Young Counties.

The Weatherization program expanded in 2000 to also include these counties as well as Wise County.

The central office was located at 301 East Commerce Street, Crowell, Texas until 2005 when it moved to newly renovated offices at 118 North First Street in Crowell.

In 2010, through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the Weatherization program expanded once again to include Brown, Callahan, Comanche, Eastland, Haskell, Jones, Kent, Knox, Shackelford, Stephens, Stonewall, Taylor, and Throckmorton Counties – totaling twenty-five counties.
