Hello! We are in need of volunteers to help paint the church house. It's a very big house and we can use all the help we can get. We were going to hire a painter but we ended up having a very big electrical problem come up and we had to allocate our funds that way instead. Painting experience is preferred. 

Hello, the chapel and rectory have some electrical issues that we could use some help with. If you're a professional electrician please reach out!

Hello! The chapel needs volunteers who are willing to come by regularly to clean. Light cleaning like dusting, sweeping, tidying up areas that need it. 

Volunteer Help Needed: We’re looking for a few helping hands to assist with moving furniture and assorted light items from one floor of our rectory to another. Nothing heavy-duty—just organizing, lifting, and carrying as part of caring for our shared space. Thank you for your support!

Our chapel and rectory need some trim and walls painted. 

Our chapel currently needs help with minor construction and repairs around our church and rectory. 

Why wait until next year to plan your next chapter? Providence Public School District is opening applications early — giving passionate, innovative, and dedicated educators the chance to lock in their positions before everyone else.

Job Summary:
Are you a compassionate RN looking for a meaningful role where you can truly make a difference? At PACE-RI, we help older adults live independently while receiving the comprehensive care they need—and we're looking for a Registered Nurse to join our interdisciplinary team. In this role, you’ll conduct nursing assessments, develop and implement individualized care plans, provide direct care, and support participants in managing chronic conditions and navigating end-of-life care. You’ll also educate families and caregivers, triage phone calls, and make timely clinical decisions or referrals.

You’ll play a key role in coordinating safe transitions of care—reconciling medications, arranging home services, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks. You’ll manage detailed documentation, update care plans, and communicate with families and team members about changes that impact care. In partnership with the Home Care team, you’ll help oversee services delivered by CNAs, conduct in-home observations, and provide ongoing education and support to ensure high standards are met.

Flexibility is important in this role. You'll provide nursing coverage at our day centers as needed and participate in a rotating schedule for Saturday (approximately once every 5 weeks) and holiday coverage to support our care model. You’ll be expected to follow infection control and nursing standards, attend required trainings and meetings, and uphold privacy and confidentiality for all participants.

We are looking for volunteers and/or interns to support our youth-led organization with a variety of administrative tasks, especially related to fundraising. This is a great opportunity for adult allies to support our work to build student power in Providence to improve our education and well-being. This is also a good opportunity for developing skills in nonprofit development in a supportive, open-minded environment. It would be good to meet first in person, but some of the work can be done virtually. Tasks could include organizing/filing documents, assisting with grants, data entry, etc.

We are looking for volunteers to help keep our after-school space clean and organized!

Please wear clothes that you don't mind getting dirty and be prepared to wear a mask if needed.

The committee is focused on supporting PSU through special events and fundraising campaigns with individual donors and businesses.

Coordinate a community drive for basic needs, such as food or hygiene products, for Providence youth. In our afterschool space, we offer a variety of resources for students, including free snacks and nonperishable food, personal care products, school supplies, and new/gently used clothes. We are looking for volunteers who would like to coordinate a food or supply drive with their workplace, class, church or other group to help us replenish our stock of resources. This can be a great community-building activity for your team, and the resources will go directly to youth facing the burden of the extremely high cost of living in Providence. 

We are a nonprofit, volunteer-driven membership organization supporting older adults who wish to age in place—surrounded by community, dignity, and mutual care. Through a growing network of local villages, we foster meaningful connections and provide practical support that empowers older adults to thrive.

Nationwide, the Village Movement is inspiring older adults who want to remain – and live a full life – in their homes and communities. Over the span of over 20 years, older adults have created more than 300 Villages. A Village is a self-governing and self-supporting local community of mutual support, where neighbors help neighbors to thrive. In a Village, comprehensive support and social engagement helps people to enjoy lives that are both independent and connected. The promise of the Village model for our own community led a group of neighbors in Providence, RI to form The Providence Village in 2015. Its success led the Board to restructure itself in 2019 as The Village Common of Rhode Island (TVCRI), a statewide network of villages. Ten additional villages have formed, and local volunteers are organizing others. TVCRI is a hub, serving members and volunteers across Rhode Island. Villages are in Aquidneck Island (Newport, Portsmouth, Middletown), Barrington, Bristol-Warren, Burrillville, Cumberland, Edgewood, Glocester, Jamestown, Providence, Warwick, and Westerly. TVCRI today serves more than 700 members in practical ways such as providing transportation and helping with errands and home repairs. We also offer many social activities and opportunities to make a difference by volunteering. Indeed, volunteers make our member experience possible. A committed corps of over 500 volunteers, more than half of whom are also members, is involved in every aspect of Village operations, management and governance. Our culture is practical and aspirational, rooted in core values of mutuality, generosity and inclusivity, and it drives our vision and commitment to being a hub committed to servicing all. At The Village Common of Rhode Island (TVCRI), we believe aging is a journey that is best traveled together.

We are seeking a compassionate, detail-oriented Data Support Administrative Coordinator reporting directly to the Executive Director. This role is essential to the smooth functioning of our back-end operations and the heartbeat of our member experience. You’ll be the friendly voice on the phone, the steady hand behind our data systems, and a vital connector between our central office and village communities.

Careers in the unionized construction industry are rewarding and challenging careers, yet women make up only approximately 3% of the construction trades workforce and 10% of Building Futures' pre-apprenticeship graduates. This position is an opportunity to change that. Building Futures is seeking an experienced tradesperson (journeyworker preferred) who is a skilled educator and teacher and who brings a deep understanding of the barriers women face in nontraditional occupations.

The Women Building Rhode Island (WBRI) Trainer will design and deliver a new hands-on apprenticeship readiness training in cross team collaboration at Building Futures that will encourage women to explore careers in building and construction, build physical and technical skills, and learn about industry culture before entrance to Building Futures' pre-apprenticeship program and placement in employment as a registered apprentice in one of many trades. Additionally, the Trainer will work in collaboration with the RI Women's Council of the Building and Construction Trades Council and with Building Futures' program alumnae to build the community of Rhode Island tradeswomen, provide skills-based and leadership development workshops, and collaborate with partners to ensure women have the tools, confidence, and networks they need to thrive and advance in their careers.

Building Futures was founded in 2007 as a construction industry partnership focused on leveraging the Registered Apprenticeship model of workforce development. For over 100 years, unions and employers have jointly operated quality registered apprenticeships in construction occupations to train individuals as highly skilled tradespeople. Our work spans three distinct but highly aligned areas.

For the benefit of low-income Rhode Islanders, Building Futures developed and operates a comprehensive pre-apprenticeship program to prepare diverse, low-income men and women for success in employment as registered apprentices in the building trades. In addition, we work in partnership with a wide range of stakeholders to ensure construction projects provide apprenticeship opportunities at appropriate levels to meet future demand for skilled labor through our Apprentice Utilization Program. Our pre-apprenticeship and apprentice utilization programs provide an effective workforce development system in Rhode Island's construction sector.

From this foundation, we have established Apprenticeship Rhode Island, an initiative to expand the use of Registered Apprenticeship beyond the construction sector. Now, we are helping develop new registered apprenticeship programs in multiple sectors, including healthcare, information technology, advanced manufacturing, and marine trades. Working with employers, industry partnerships, government, and community-based organizations, we are spreading the proven model of Registered Apprenticeship to benefit the state's workforce and economy.

1. Training and Education

In alignment with Building Futures' high-quality training stands and best practices, develop, implement, and provide direct hands-on and classroom instruction for a new apprenticeship readiness program for women that builds technical skills and explores careers in building and construction, including:

• Design and implement accessible and engaging training activities, materials, and curricula that align with best practices in adult learning.

• Maintain proper worksite safety while conducting hands-on training, modeling industry standards.

• Establish and enforce policies for participants.

• Coordinate training logistics, schedules, and participant communications.

• Maintain participant records.

• In partnership with training staff, maintain proper organization and security of equipment, tools, materials, supplies, consumables, and PPE.

• Engage in regular communication with training and social service staff regarding participant progress, including participation in scheduled meetings and informal interactions with staff members.

• Assist with data collection, program tracking, and reporting outcomes related to women's participation and advancement.

• Provide support to Building Futures' training and alumni education programs, as needed.

2. Program Support and Coordination

Support implementation of WBRI strategies to recruit, retain, and advance women in the trades, including:

• Facilitate peer mentoring and networking groups among Building Futures pre-apprenticeship alumnae and Rhode Island tradeswomen.

• Collaborate with Building Futures' teams to address training needs that support women's success and retention, identified by alumnae and apprenticeship and employer partners.

• Provide individual coaching and resource navigation to women working in building and construction trades apprenticeships.

• Collaborate with other members of the External Relations Team to support the implementation of an outreach strategy for women-focused programming.

3. Partnerships & Community Engagement

• Work closely with the RI Women's Council of the RI Building and Construction Trades Council to support events, meetings, and outreach initiatives that elevate the voices and leadership of tradeswomen.

• Support relationship building with unions, contractors, training providers, and community partners to strengthen pathways for women in construction careers.

• Represent Building Futures and the Women Building Rhode Island initiative at community and industry events.

4. External Relations Team

• Support and participate in team and organization-wide events and activities, as needed.

• Other duties, as assigned

Alignment and commitment to our organizational mission are essential: our mission is to meet employer needs for skilled workers through Registered Apprenticeship, creating equitable paths to family-sustaining careers for Rhode Islanders. Additionally, successful applicants will have:

• A minimum of 5 years of construction experience, with a strong preference for those who have become Journeyworkers via a jointly-operated registered apprenticeship program.

• 3+ years supervisory experience, with experience leading cross-trade construction crews preferred; at minimum, a broad range of knowledge on all building trade occupations.

• Previous experience in leading hands-on training, classroom teaching, and mentorship.

• Strong communication skills and ability to build relationships effectively and professionally with diverse participants and partners.

• Strong commitment to working with people experiencing poverty and formerly incarcerated people.

• Ability to lead diverse groups.

• Strong organizational and project management skills.

• Ability to work nights and possibly some weekends during training cycles and in recruitment efforts.

• Ability to work outside in all types of weather, comfortable lifting and carrying 50 pounds regularly, and capable of standing, climbing, bending, and kneeling for prolonged periods of time.

• Competency with computer programs, including MS Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint.

ABOUT THE COMMUNITY
 

Ranked #1 in Travel + Leisure Magazine’s 2014 America’s Favorite Cities Survey, praised by Architectural Digest as “The country’s best small city,” and named America’s Coolest City by GQ Magazine in 2015, Providence is the capital and most populous city in Rhode Island. Founded in 1636, it is one of the oldest cities in the United States and the third-largest city in the New England region after Boston and Worcester. Providence has a city population of 180,609 and is part of the Providence metropolitan area with an estimated population of 1,622,520. The region is considered part of the Greater Boston combined statistical area, the sixth largest in the country, with over eight million residents.

Once nicknamed the “Beehive of Industry,” Providence has rebranded itself as the “Creative Capital” to emphasize its educational resources (Brown University, Rhode Island School of Design, Providence College, Rhode Island College, Roger Williams University, and Johnson & Wales University) and arts community. Over the last twenty years, much of Providence has undergone a true civic renaissance, as political leaders and residents have propelled the city into an exciting place to work and live. City streets are packed with boutiques, hotels, renovated lofts, excellent restaurants, and art spaces.

In addition to being the home of Trinity Repertory Company, Providence has a remarkable arts and culture community that includes nationally renowned community arts center, AS220; the Rhode Island Philharmonic Orchestra; RISD Museum; Providence Athenaeum; Festival Ballet; and WaterFire. Providence is also home to several performing arts centers such as the Veterans Memorial Auditorium and the Providence Performing Arts Center, as well as a number of smaller theaters. The city’s music scene, centered on artist-run spaces, is well known in underground music circles.  

The restaurant scene in Providence is second to none and a source of immense pride for residents, as the city has been consistently recognized as a top city for food. Because of Rhode Island’s proximity to the ocean, many restaurants, grocery stores, and farmer’s markets boast food sourced from the state itself, giving real meaning to the phrase “farm-to-table” dining. From bakeries and coffee shops, to bars and food trucks, there is no shortage of fun, excellent, cutting-edge dining in the city.
