Creating A Better World Together
The REJC is made up of four distinct, yet interdependent bodies:
Board
Staff
Committee Members
Kinfolk
We are looking for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color to join us in envisioning and creating a Just and Equitable Providence. We accept new committee members on a rolling basis and will reach out to those who sign up when an opportunity presents itself. Here is that unique opportunity to participate in creating a more sustainable and equitable Rhode Island. REJC is looking for community members who want to make a true difference in our state's future. Apply today here, especially if you have an interest and/or background in community organizing, legal, finance, or human resources.
Thank you for your patience!
REJC Board of Directors
Purpose: The Board of Directors are stipend-volunteers who reflect the community in which the REJC serves. They work in collaboration with REJC staff and Committee Members to guide high level REJC governance, policy, financials, and operations. The Board anchors its purpose on supporting and ensuring the REJC ethically and transparently pursues its mission and greater vision.
REJC Staff
Purpose: The REJC staff’s purpose is to steward the REJC in achieving its mission, and vision. The staff acts as a backbone for its many arms in the community, providing stability, consistency, and resources to the Committee Members, Board, and Kinfolk.
REJC Committee Members
Purpose: The REJC Committee is to drive the direction, policy recommendations, and key actions of the REJC towards its mission and vision to support staff in community outreach and practice.
Responsibilities/Duties: These folks are the conduit to the community concerns and desires. E.g. monthly neighborhood meetings with local leaders, neighborhood organizations, and residents.
REJC Kinfolk
Purpose: Aligned organizations or individuals who are either involved in social justice or EJ specifically to support REJC and/or EJ outcomes from a community, institutional, and political lens.
