We currently provide services to over 4500 people at our downtown Food Pantry and serve a hot meal to 500+ individuals/families monthly at our downtown community meal site. Our homeless outreach program offers intensive, holistic case management to 150+ unsheltered folks a month. Annually , Better Lives Rhode Island serves 62,000 of our friends and neighbors. Better Lives RI is a non-profit agency whose mission is to offer stability, justice, and hope to those in need through advocacy and direct service. This is accomplished through our three program areas.
