The Clinic also serves as a training site for aspiring healthcare professionals. Services and training are provided at our Clinic in Providence at its state-of-the-art, 8,000 square foot facility. The Clinic raises 100% of its $1.5 million annual budget, and with that leverages over $7.5 million in additional health resources to provide medical, dental, behavioral health care and wellness programs to improve the health of vulnerable RI adults. Through the Clinic’s comprehensive range of free health services, patients' health is stabilized and improved, and they are empowered through increased health literacy, follow-up visits, and referrals to self-manage chronic conditions and better maintain their own wellness. The Clinic seeks an excellent writer and thinker with demonstrated initiative and clear organizational, communications and analytical skills to increase philanthropic support for the Clinic’s comprehensive health services for low-income, uninsured adults. The Grants and Program Development VISTA position is directly related to Rhode Island Free Clinic Strategic Planning goals for the next 3-5 years. This person will collaborate with RI Free Clinic staff to create and develop system to evaluate impact of current grants and identify gaps in place. Will be responsible to developing new strategies and procedures, problem-solving, and adopting best practices.
