Caruolo honored with Justice Award for work with EBCC

Posted

Rhode Island Attorney General Peter F. Kilmartin honored Warwick resident James Caruolo, Esq., at the 11th annual Justice Awards held Oct. 1 at the Crowne Plaza.

Justice awards are given in recognition of an individual’s or organization’s commitment to justice and community service and are presented in honor of the eight previous Attorneys General: Arlene Violet, Richard Israel, Herbert DeSimone, Dennis Roberts, James O’Neil, Jeffrey Pine, Sheldon Whitehouse and Patrick Lynch.

James Caruolo, Esq., received the James O’Neil Justice Award for Domestic Violence Prevention for his work with the Elizabeth Buffum Chace Center, where he serves on the Board of Directors. Caruolo also serves as solicitor for the town of North Providence, where he works closely with domestic violence advocates to do everything within his power to hold domestic violence abusers accountable for their actions and ensure the victims receive the justice they deserve.

“Each year we celebrate the works of individuals who quietly do great work and who give back to their community, never expecting to be recognized or asking for anything in return.  And, that is exactly why they deserved to be honored. James Caruolo is one of those people,” said Attorney General Peter Kilmartin.

“We are so pleased that Jim Caruolo was chosen to receive this honor. He not only works tirelessly to ensure that victims of interpersonal violence receive justice in court, he promotes the mission of the EBC Center out in the community, raising awareness of the issue and information on available resources,” added Judith Earle, executive director of the Elizabeth Buffum Chace Center.

Caruolo is also a colonel in the Rhode Island National Guard, where he serves as a staff judge advocate.
