Passion, empathy, and understanding are at the forefront of everything we do—not just for our members, but for our employees as well.

It’s why we offer flexible work arrangements that include remote and hybrid opportunities and paid time off. We provide tuition reimbursement and assist with student‑loan repayment. We offer health, dental, and vision insurance as well as programs that support your mental health and well‑being. We pay competitively, offer bonuses and investment plans, and are committed to growing and developing our employees.

We strive to be transparent and accountable. We believe in equipping our associates with the knowledge and resources they need to be successful. No matter where you’re at in the organization, you’re an integral part of our team and your input, thoughts, and ideas are valued.

We appreciate and celebrate everything that makes us unique, from personal characteristics to past experiences. Our different perspectives strengthen us as an organization and help us better serve all Rhode Islanders.

Our focus extends beyond providing access to high‑quality, affordable, and equitable care. To further improve the health and well‑being of our fellow Rhode Islanders, we regularly roll up our sleeves and get to work (literally) in communities all across the state—building homes, working in food pantries, revitalizing community centers, and transforming outdoor spaces for children and adults. Because we believe it is our collective responsibility to uplift our fellow Rhode Islanders when and where we can, our associates receive additional paid time to volunteer.
