Child & Family is excited to celebrate the 150th anniversary of our founding as the first social service provider in Newport County and only the second in the State of Rhode Island. Our work ensures the care and advancement of more than 5,000 community “family” members each year. By preserving families, we strengthen the fabric of communities and move from a place of intervention to a place of prevention. We hope you will join us for our year long anniversary celebration.

With the help of community partners like you we can continue our legacy of providing a center for community involvement – a place where people across a lifespan come together to give help, to receive help and to support the work of others.

On behalf of the staff, the board of directors and the wonderful 150^th Anniversary Host Committee, we hope you will be part of the year-long festivities commemorating our legacy of strengthening the fabric of family and providing the best care, support, and state-of-the-art facilities for children, teens, families and elders here in Rhode Island for 150 years and beyond.

Thank you,
