PROVIDENCE – Meals on Wheels of Rhode Island has named three new members to its 2021-22 board of directors. Jaclyn Cotter, an associate for Indeglia Lutario; Jocelyn Nacci, vice president of commercial banking for Centreville Bank; and Christina M. Pitney, vice president of government programs at Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island, were all named to Meals on Wheels’ 15-member board.

In a statement, Meals on Wheels Executive Director Meghan Grady said the organization continuously operated during the COVID-19 pandemic to help the state’s older residents maintain access to nutritious foods and other services they need to age independently.

“As we look to the future, we are focused on organizational growth to meet an increased need for our programs, which the pandemic highlighted, and which we know will only continue to grow alongside our state’s older adult population,” Grady said.
