About ProvPlan
Founded in 1992 as a joint venture of the City of Providence, the State of Rhode Island, the academic community, and the private sector, ProvPlan is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation governed by a 16-member board of directors. ProvPlan employs a small staff of professionals to work on a number of projects in pursuit of its mission. ProvPlan was founded to achieve six principal goals: • Put people to work
• Retain the City's middle class
• Make our neighborhoods safe and livable
• Prepare today’s children for tomorrow’s jobs
• Provide decent and affordable housing
• Increase jobs and tax base in downtown Providence
ProvPlan seeks to achieve these goals and others by building partnerships among City, State, and Federal agencies; business, labor, civic, and religious groups; community-based organizations; academic institutions; and concerned residents.
