“We need these boards to be up and running,” said George D. Caruolo, Chairman of the Board of Regents. “The boards have an important impact on these institutions, and we need good, high-quality people who are willing to donate their time for this important work.”
The Regents are particularly in need of volunteers for the School for the Deaf board who have deafness or hearing impairment.
The Regents also note that membership on the Central Falls board is open to residents from other communities.
The state laws establishing the Boards of Trustees are posted here:
