This year marks an extraordinary milestone for Child & Family: 160 years of serving Rhode Island communities.

Since our founding in Newport in 1866, Child & Family has grown and evolved to meet the changing needs of our communities. Through generations of change, one thing has remained constant: our commitment to supporting children, strengthening families, empowering young people, and helping older adults live safely and independently.

On behalf of our Board of Directors and the entire Child & Family team, we are delighted to invite you to our 160th Anniversary Annual Meeting at the historic Rosecliff Mansion.

Celebrate 160 Years With Us

This special evening will bring together the friends, supporters, community partners, and leaders who have helped shape our story. We will reflect on 160 years of service, recognize the contributions of those who make our mission possible, and share our vision for the future.

Our history is one of generosity, resilience, and collaboration. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of that journey, and we look forward to celebrating this milestone with you.

Admission is complimentary, but registration is required. Space is limited.
