Leadership Rhode Island (LRI) is now accepting applications for its 2027 Psi II Core Program, a 10-month, January–October experience that brings together a diverse cohort of 75 leaders for a behind-the-scenes view of Rhode Island.

Through shared experiences, participants build meaningful relationships across sectors, broaden their understanding of Rhode Island, and gain new perspectives on how they can contribute to the state’s future.

Over the past four decades, LRI has built a network of more than 3,200 leaders, strengthening statewide leadership capacity and fostering collaboration among individuals committed to addressing Rhode Island’s most pressing challenges.

Prospective applicants can learn more about session dates, tuition, financial assistance, and the application process on our website. Those interested in learning more are also invited to attend LRI’s 2027 Psi II Open House on Thursday, September 10, 2026. This event offers an opportunity to network with Leadership Rhode Island Core Program alumni and to hear firsthand from alumni and recent class members about their experiences.

Applications for the 2027 Psi II class are due by the end of day Sunday, September 27, 2026. To apply for the 2027 Psi II Class, please visit: leadershipri.org/2027coreapply/.
