Workshop Applications Open

The Rhode Island League of Cities and Towns unveiled the theme for their annual convention to take place March 20, 2025.

Waves of Progress: Strengthening Rhode Island Together was selected as the upcoming convention theme to signify the solidarity of the League's membership.

"It's imperative our communities work collaboratively to continue to make progress in an ever-changing environment. When we navigate challenges together, we are all more likely to succeed.", said Randy Rossi, Executive Director of the League. 

Applications to present a workshop at the 2025 Convention have opened and are due January 13, 2025. For more information, interested parties should visit the League's website. 

For best consideration, proposals should:

• Engage the audience by showcasing best practices, case studies, or other interactive learning experiences

• Highlight innovative solutions, cost-saving programs, and successful shared services in cities and towns

• Promote collaboration through public-private partnerships, intergovernmental cooperation, and intra-agency programs

• Address ‘hot topics’ like:

  • workforce recruitment and retention

  • AI and emerging technology use

  • engaging the community and young people
