On Saturday, February 8, 2020, Provident Behavioral Health is hosting the annual Spirit of Provident Gala at The Ritz-Carlton, St. Louis. This year we celebrate 160 years of history, and open a new chapter as we join with Mary Ryder Home and its 90 years of compassionate care. Provident Behavioral Health and Mary Ryder Home have served St. Louis’ most vulnerable and underserved for a combined 250 years.

We are delighted to announce Lawrence E. (Larry) Thomas, Partner at Edward Jones, as the recipient of 2020 Spirit of Provident Award. Larry served as Provident Board Chair for 2017 and 2018 and is passionate about serving the St. Louis community.
