RIPL is a non-profit tech-for-social impact organization. We are positioned to add several new team positions over the coming months.

RIPL science has supported policy and process improvements in health care, education, social insurance, civic participation, workforce development, and criminal justice. During COVID-19, we worked with Rhode Island to make it the first state in the country to pay out Pandemic Unemployment Assistance benefits to support Rhode Island workers after they lost their jobs due to the pandemic. To date, we have helped over 70,000 RI workers receive their unemployment benefits.

As an organization we value quality over quantity, we believe our government partners deserve the best, we know that changing culture and systems takes longer than anyone ever thinks it will and we’re committed for the long-term.
