Higgins, Cavanagh & Cooney, LLP, was inducted into the Charles E. Maynard Society in a ceremony on May 18 at the Hope Club in Providence.

Named for The Providence Center’s founder and former president, the Charles E. Maynard Society gives special recognition to individuals, corporations and foundations that have made a philanthropic commitment to The Providence Center.

Members have made substantial, cumulative gifts to The Providence Center or have named The Providence Center in a planned gift, such as a bequest, trust or retirement plan.

Higgins, Cavanagh & Cooney partner Paul S. Callaghan represented the firm at the event, which included a presentation by Providence Center President Dale K. Klatzker, Ph.D., who updated members on The Center’s programs.

The Providence Center is at the forefront of innovative approaches to behavioral health care designed to meet the changing needs of the more than 13,000 Rhode Islanders it serves each year.

Since The Providence Center opened its doors in 1969, it has been a community resource, providing people from all walks of life with mental health and substance abuse services in their homes, schools and neighborhoods.
