Rhode Island Pay for Success Act

This act authorizes a government to test pay-for-success contracting, an arrangement in which private or philanthropic funders finance social services up front and the government repays them only if agreed-upon outcomes are achieved. It sets up a pilot program to carry out such arrangements, along with a dedicated restricted receipt account to hold and disburse the funds involved, and defines the terms governing how the program operates. Ongoing reporting requirements track the pilot's progress and results.
