Rhode Island may be a tiny state, but Drupal's making a pretty big splash here. We've been having regular meetups for the past year in Providence via DrupalPVD.org with new faces every month. Our focus is equal parts designer, developer and site owner; our goal is to help everyone learn, grow and share their experience working with and on the Drupal platform.
Our other source of Drupal company is the Boston group which caters to all of Massachusetts and occasionally has meetings close to Rhode Island.
New England Drupal Camp
After much deliberation, we’re excited to announce our plans for New England Drupal Camp 2020. Mark your calendars for Friday, November 6, 2020, and get ready for a NEDCamp like you’ve never seen before.
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we’re going fully virtual this year, but with a twist. Instead of the back-to-back sessions of a typical online conference, we’re trying a new format that we’re calling the BOFCon.

With the uncertainty of the COVID-19 outbreak affecting DrupalCon Minneapolis, the DA's biggest fund raiser, financial support is needed now to help the DA continue its mission of supporting the Drupal software project and the Drupal Community.
As one of the community-elected representatives on the Drupal Association board of Directors I urge you and your organization to help support the Drupal Association now. Read my blog post to learn HOW you can help.
