Stay ConnectedOne of the last events we did with Mr. Bob was the Community Forum on Education. After this event, Bob called Sulina (and likely many of you), overwhelmed with pride for the students who spoke, the students who attended, and all the important work our youth are leading within the community. It’s critical that we continue to empower our youth by listening to them and providing opportunities for them to grow and lead.
Thank you to all of you who are doing your part to take care of yourselves, looking out for others, and being a positive force in the community. Everything you do, big or small, has an impact. Working together, we can carry on the lessons we have learned from Mr. Bob and each other and empower a healthy and connected community for all. Stay connected: https://forms.gle/AghmUYeG1RoAdmebA |
URI vs UMass
We took a trip to the Ryan Center for the URI vs UMass basketball game! We had an amazing time a great game by Rhode Island Men's Basketball! We made it on to the big screen and many of the kids got to meet players (and an NBA legend)!
Thank you to everyone who helped make it a great experience!

A Community Effort

Making Hay IV A number of hardy souls came together, at Faith Hill Farm, to promote awareness of mental health and substance abuse concerns. In addition to hearing wonderful speakers, the evening highlighted the importance of community. Many thanks to all those who braved inclement weather to participate. The attached video hopefully offers a glimpse into an important night. What a powerful grass roots effort. Great things happen when people care. Thanks Bob. |
Important Discussions
Kathi and Chris Sullivan, from Sullivan’s Message, paid a visit to East Greenwich to speak with students (during the day) and parents (for an evening presentation). Their powerful message regarding underage drinking, parenting, and mental health, resonated with all those who attended these sessions. It was powerful! It was honest! It was a message about us caring about each other.
Enhancing a sense of belonging as well as initiating (sometimes) difficult discussions are vitally important when it comes to protecting young people. The photos attached offer a brief overview of Kathi and Chris Sullivan’s evening presentation. Working with the Kent County Prevention Coalition, ASAPP, EG Police Department, EG High School and the Town, helped bring to light many important concerns.
