It’s Happening In- and Outside of Rhode Island!

update

PROVIDENCE, RI - After months (and months and months) I finally updated my Listings Pages. If you regularly check in, then you’ll know that already - when I remember - I post the Rhode Island Young Professionals’ weekly E-news. But as of Saturday, September 15, 2007, I’ve posted updates and opportunities from the Rhode Island Chapter of the National Coalition of 100 Black Women, CAPP-RI, The Jim Vincent Show, The Urban League of RI, The National Association of Black Journalists and more. Below I’ve provided you with a sample of what you’ll find. Be sure to check through all the sections - there’s new information under each of them…and more to come. Peace.

MEMBERSHIP ORIENTATION

Friday, September 21, 2007
5:45 PM - 8:00 PM
Gilbane Buiding Company headquarters
7 Jackson Walkway in Providence

On Friday, September 21 at 5:45 PM, RIYP will hold its second membership orientation for the 2007 year. This will be your chance to meet some of the organization’s leadership and to become more familiar with and learn about RIYP’s local and national ties. It will also be a great time to hear about what RI-based company Gilbane does – professionally and in relation to RIYP. Refreshments will be on hand and there will be plenty of time to slow down and informally network after a long week of work. For more information about the event, email info@riyp.org to sign up for RIYP’s weekly updates, and contact the Vice President of RIYP, Reza C. Clifton, by emailing vicepresident@riyp.org or calling 401-497-5246.
