Picerne Military Housing is the Army's developer-partner under the Residential Communities Initiative (RCI) and currently works with the Army at Forts Meade, Bragg, Polk, Rucker, Riley, Sill and Aberdeen Proving Ground. Picerne Military Housing was established to create world-class residential communities for the Department of Defense (DoD) and is operated by one of the nation's most experienced, high-quality residential developers. Picerne Military Housing's business approach has a single-purpose: the satisfaction of Families First®. Picerne Military Housing is unique in its single-minded dedication to the mission caring for the Soldiers and families living in Picerne Military Housing homes and communities.

As part of John Picerne's personal commitment to Families First™, he has created a private charitable foundation called Our Family For Families First. This foundation, funded by personal contributions, other private contributions, and an annual fundraiser, serves Army families and the local communities surrounding Picerne Military Housing installations. The Foundation was established to further serve the families of active-duty Soldiers and the communities in which Army families live.
