An aerial rendering shows a large, master-planned development from an elevated perspective. At the center is a circular plaza with a wide, open gathering space and geometric walkways radiating outward. Surrounding the plaza are several low-rise buildings arranged in a ring-like pattern, connected by curved pedestrian paths and landscaped green spaces. Clusters of trees—some with pink blossoms—are scattered throughout the site, along with small lawns, planted beds, and winding sidewalks. A pond with a curved shoreline sits to the left of the central area, bordered by trees and walking paths. Behind the plaza, a mid-rise residential-style building with multiple floors stands prominently, with additional large buildings nearby that resemble event spaces, retail structures, or community facilities. One building features red rectangular accents on its roof. To the right side of the image is a long parking lot filled with rows of parked cars. In the distance, expansive industrial or warehouse buildings and large parking areas stretch toward the horizon, indicating the development is situated within a broader commercial or mixed-use district. The overall image appears to be a digital architectural visualization rather than a photograph.

The Top Children’s Books on Disability

Graphic advocating for full funding of disability services. At the top, bold navy text reads, “20,000 people with disabilities, 5,000 staff, & 35 providers are asking you to…” Below it, large green text says, “Fully Fund Disability Services.” On the left is a circular photo of Rhode Island Governor Dan McKee speaking at a podium. To the right is a horizontal progress bar filled halfway in dark blue, labeled “50%.” Beneath the bar, text explains that a state review found disability services need more funding and that Governor McKee’s proposed budget funds only 50% of the recommended amount. The text states that advocates are asking lawmakers to fund 100% of the funding needed for disability services. A section header below reads, “What Fully Funded Services Look Like,” with green checkmark icons beneath it, indicating positive outcomes or benefits (specific items not shown in this image).
