A DID Ambassador removing trash from Downtown Providence

Supporting Downtown Providence

Each number represents hands-on work: removing posted bills and stickers, clearing broken glass, collecting trash, assisting people who need help, and keeping eyes on key areas through daily safety patrols.

The Ambassador Team records this information while they are actively working downtown, so the totals reflect real conditions on the ground, not estimates. Some categories rise or fall based on season, weather, event activity, construction, and other factors that change foot traffic and street conditions throughout the month.

  • Cleaning and upkeep: trash collection, bag counts, bulk waste totals, and common issues like broken glass.
  • Quality-of-life support: hospitality assistance, health and wellness checks, and safety escorts.
  • Safety presence: routine patrols and issue tracking, including panhandling reports and needle collection.
  • Seasonal work and projects: snow removal hours and time spent on special projects that improve public spaces.
  • Business support: direct contacts with downtown businesses to share information, solve problems, and keep communication moving.
