History of Best Buddies Rhode Island 

Best Buddies Rhode Island has been in operation since 2010 working to enrich the lives of youth and adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) through our Friendship program, and Leadership Development program. To date, Best Buddies is impacting the lives of over 1,300 youth with and without IDD throughout Rhode Island.

The success of our programs is due in large part to our local Advisory Board members, dedicated volunteers, generous donors, foundation support, and a team of extremely devoted staff!
