Rhode Island ARPA Support Grant Awardees

The Rhode Island Foundation, Governor McKee, the General Assembly, and the Rhode Island Pandemic Recovery Office jointly established the Rhode Island ARPA Support Grant program in 2022 to distribute funding from Rhode Island’s $1.1 billion share of the federal American Rescue Plan Act allocation for COVID-19 recovery.

This program, established with $20 million from the Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds (CSLFRF) program, a part of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), was designed to assist Rhode Island-based nonprofits negatively impacted by COVID-19 that deliver services to address food insecurity, housing issues, homelessness, and behavioral health needs.

The $20 million awarded by the Foundation over a six-month period to 240 nonprofits is the single largest pool of grants in our 107-year history.
