Medical Privacy Fight: A Rhode Island child advocate’s bid to stop Rhode Island Hospital from turning over gender-affirming care records to the DOJ was rejected, keeping the dispute moving through the courts. Workplace Health & Safety: Rhode Island is highlighted as having the lowest workplace fatality rate in 2024 (1.1 per 100,000), while Wyoming tops the list (13.9). Community Health: Coastal1 Credit Union donated 1,000 soccer balls statewide to reduce equipment barriers for youth leagues. Local Safety: Providence police responded to a stabbing on Bodell Avenue early Monday; the victim was taken to Rhode Island Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
