PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) – After a three-month battle, the R.I. Department of Children, Youth and Families is moving ahead with a decision to revoke the child care license of a nonprofit chaired by state Rep. Anastasia Williams.
DCYF first informed the long-troubled nonprofit, the John Hope Settlement House, that its license would be revoked last November, after discovering an employee was working at its day care center despite being barred by DCYF. John Hope sued to block the move, and a judge ordered a December appeal hearing.
