In the company of family, friends, and supporters, 40 young leaders pledged to make a difference in the schools and neighborhoods of Rhode Island. These dedicated corps members will serve with nearly 1500 young leaders in 19 communities across the country.  Each year at the Opening Day ceremony, City Year Rhode Island honors the commitment of corps members to make a difference in the communities and schools of Rhode Island.
