On Tuesday, June 9th, at 5:30 p.m., the Special Committee on Health, Opportunity, Prosperity, and Education will be holding a meeting with public comment on reform for the Juvenile Hearing Board.

The Juvenile Hearing Board is an alternative to Family Court that provides eligible young people with the opportunity to learn from their mistakes and give back to their community. Right now, referral to the JHB is entirely discretionary, meaning a young person's future may depend on what officer is on duty. These amendments make referral to the Juvenile Hearing Board automatic for first and second-time offenders, in most cases. According to sponsors, this would create a clearer, fairer path for more young people to experience community-based accountability.

Share your perspective on June 9th or by submitting testimony to [email protected].

Our city wouldn’t be the one we know and love without the LGBTQIA+ neighbors who have helped shape it. This month, we celebrate and honor their history, resilience, and commitment to the fight for freedom to live openly and authentically.

At a time when queer and trans communities face increasing attacks and discrimination, we must recommit ourselves to standing up for our neighbors and speaking out against efforts to target or marginalize them. Whether it’s learning more about LGBTQIA+ history, supporting local organizations, or attending community events, there are countless ways to show our neighbors that they have support here, are welcome here, and belong here.

Here’s to the queer and trans communities of Providence, you deserve to feel safe, protected, and celebrated in the city you call home. Happy Pride Month. 🌈

[David Morales @DavidMoralesPVD]

I am honored to have the support of our Providence educators who are on the ground supporting our students and families each day. As our next Mayor, I’m committed to prioritizing the mental health of our students, supporting our multilingual learners with the expansion of dual language classrooms, and building stronger relationships between our schools and families.

Council President Rachel Miller is the ARISE 2026 Intersectionality Awardee! Last night ARISE brought together 200 community members, leaders, and allies to honor the powerful voices and contributions of BIPOC youth. The highlight of the event was the Justice, Solidarity, and Intersectionality Award ceremony, which honored community advocates like President Miller who epitomize ARISE’s core values.

ARISE combines leadership training with community organizing to mobilize Southeast Asian and other Rhode Island youth of color for education justice. Congratulations to President Miller on her award!

Kallman said 42 other states make crash data available to the public, showing federal law is not a barrier. “You can’t manage what you don’t measure, and we need data like this to make better public policy about transit, pedestrian safety and investments."

Yesterday afternoon, Providence City Councilor Justin Roias (Ward 4) joined residents in the city’s North End for the announcement of the Etta Apartments Tenants Union.

Etta Apartments operates under the Section 8 housing program and serves elderly members of our community. The formation of the union comes in direct response to disrespectful practices, excessive fees, poor maintenance, and absentee management.

“Once one building organizes, another building starts talking. And then another. And another. That’s why today matters, because today the dominoes fall in the North End,” Roias said.

City Councilors Althea Graves (Ward 12) and Juan M. Pichardo (Ward 9) were also in attendance to show their support.

[Brian Crandall @nbc10_brian]

And now @AGNeronha has sued Kalshi and Polymarket in state court for "unlawfully conducting sports gambling in Rhode Island."

[David Morales @DavidMoralesPVD]

For too long, tenants at Etta Apartments have been dealing with junk fees, harassment, and poor living conditions that the management company has failed to address.

Instead of accepting these conditions, tenants have together as a community to form the Etta Tenants Union!

@_KennyUong_ @pvdcitycouncil Unfortunately, this was temporary because our regular camera was down. This required one of the clerks to hold and operate a camera the whole meeting which is not realistic for meetings that last hours.

[Alexandra Leslie @AlexandraLeslie]

BREAKING: RIDE just sent me this letter from R.I. Education Commissioner Angélica Infante-Green... she will be submitting her recommendation to RI K-12 Council to for a full return of PPSD to local control on July 1, 2026... in 42 days.

Ah yes, why are people spending $28 on lunch and not why is lunch $28.

Great analysis.

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

I know a few teachers in Queens who would beg to differ.
