Rooted in the faith community of Providence, Rhode Island, the Catholic Medical Society of Rhode Island represents a spiritual and professional fellowship of Catholic healthcare providers dedicated to living out their medical calling as a ministry. Since its formal establishment in 2007, the organization has brought together physicians, dentists, nurses, and healthcare professionals who share a common mission: to grow in the spirit of Christ while bringing His healing presence to all aspects of their professional work. The Society embraces a distinctive vision of the Catholic physician as an icon of Christ the Divine Physician, grounded in the belief that medical practice is fundamentally a vocation rooted in God's love and expressed through compassionate care. Members of the Rhode Island Catholic Medical Society commit themselves to a promise that guides their professional lives—to continually improve their abilities, respect patients as human persons created in God's image, defend human life from conception to natural death, and serve the public health with integrity and dignity. The organization welcomes not only full members of the Catholic Medical Association but also invites all physicians, practitioners, and patients to participate in open, public events that explore the intersection of faith and medicine. Through local networking, spiritual support, educational seminars, and collaborative civic engagement, the Society fosters a vibrant community where healthcare professionals in Providence and throughout Rhode Island can strengthen their Catholic identity while advancing their professional excellence and supporting one another in the sacred work of healing.

The Italian American Historical Society of Rhode Island serves the broader community through social, cultural, and historical programs that engage both members and the general public. From hosting acclaimed artists and musicians to organizing educational trips and literary events, the organization creates meaningful opportunities for people to connect with their heritage.

Through these initiatives, the Italian American Historical Society of Rhode Island strengthens cultural bonds and ensures that the rich legacy of Italian Americans continues to inspire and inform the community.
