Brown-RISD Catholic Community

The Brown-RISD Catholic Community (BRCC) is a Catholic campus ministry that serves both Brown University and RISD, situated between both schools on College Hill. The BRCC offer students opportunities to practice the Catholic faith through divine worship, prayerful study, and charitable action.

As a student-driven community, the BRCC seeks to integrate our intellectual, creative, and social lives with the Catholic faith. It is a diverse assembly bound together as a fellowship of believers seeking to communicate our faith to one another and the broader community. Supported by the Catholic Diocese of Providence and served by the Dominican Friars of the Providence of St. Joseph, the BRCC is also a home for weekly dinners, talks, retreats, and opportunities to serve the wider community.
