Three teaching jobs

It’s
good to see an ever-increasing number of non-profit and public interest jobs
listed on Rhode Island Community Jobs, sponsored by the Swearer Center for Public Service at
Brown University. It’s really one of the best – maybe the only – comprehensive listing
of non-profit job openings in the state.
Every
evening after midnight, I get the daily listings. You can sign up by clicking HERE. I was
especially interested to see three of them available at Tri-County Community
Action Agency. They also have openings in others parts of the state.
Here
are those listings (for the sake of space, I removed repetitious parts of the
listings):
