Rhode Island Free Clinic: Our Leadership

Staff
While volunteers perform the majority of the work at Rhode Island Free Clinic, we have three full-time paid staff members whose salaries are funded by charitable donations and three VISTA volunteers. Our staff members wear many hats and have many different responsibilities, they:

• Manage patient care and ensure that patient needs are met.
• Oversee databases that track patient care and volunteer activities.
• Develop and manage new programs.
• Recruit new volunteers.
• Manage prescription services.
• Fundraise and report to donors on how their money is being used.
• Collaborate with Rhode Island's academic institutions and community organizations.
