Check out Our Latest Blog Post: How Federal Funds Benefit Richmond
Did you know how much the town of Richmond relies on federal funding for capital improvements? Over the last couple years, the town of Richmond has benefited directly from over $4 million in grants. For small towns like Richmond, it is important to get financial support at the federal level to help with larger public projects.

We were excited to host RI Treasurer James Diossa at Higher Grounds Coffeehouse!
He talked about efforts that he helped lead to buy back medical debt, establish financial education programs with middle schools, and the state-wide Secure Choice retirement system to provide all workers with an opportunity to save for retirement. As Vice Chair for the Rhode Island Democratic Party, Treasurer Diossa also provided key insight into efforts at the state and national level.
