About Us

The Roudenbush Community Center (TRCCI) is an independent nonprofit serving Westford with educational, recreational, and cultural programs for all ages—from early childhood and after-school care to art, fitness, gymnastics, senior programs, and summer adventures.

Roudenbush is an all-inclusive center—everyone in Westford is welcome here. If you have questions about accessibility or accommodations for a class or program, please don’t hesitate to call us.

It’s important to note that we are not a department within the Town of Westford. We operate as a fully independent nonprofit center, relying on program fees, facility rentals, and community support to sustain our offerings.

Governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, we partner with local organizations and offer space for community events and rentals.

Westford residents receive 10% off community education programs and childcare using code WESTFORD at checkout.

There’s always something new to explore at Roudenbush!

Brief History

The Roudenbush building, constructed in 1897, originally served as Westford Academy until 1928, when the town purchased it for public schooling. In 1957, it was renamed the William C. Roudenbush School, honoring a long-serving principal. After Westford Academy moved in 1973, the building became a community center, with the Roudenbush Community Center Committee (RCCC) forming in 1975 to manage it. In 1976, the Roudenbush Community Center Associates (RCCA) was incorporated to handle program funding. Over the years, Roudenbush expanded to multiple buildings and became financially independent in 2004, fully separating from town management in 2009. Serving the town of Westford for almost 50 years, it has provided daycare, community events, free space for various activities, and continuing education opportunities. The building underwent renovations in 2017, securing a lease through 2025.
