About the Cover . . .  “Needs Unseen: Not All Special Needs Are Visible” Photography by Kelsey Vega 

Courtesy of Eden Davis, our July cover photo – “Needs Unseen: Not All Special Needs Are Visible”  

is a family photo taken at beautiful Whittington Park in downtown Hot Springs.  

From (l-r), meet Rhonda Adams (aka Grandma), Araya Adams, Joshua Adams, Zoey Bennett, and Eden Davis, (aka Mom).  

Advocacy for her autistic daughter, Zoey, has taken Eden on a journey to find and create resources for our special needs community.  

When Alana Pierce expressed interest in writing about autism and mentioned she had some excellent people to interview, we were on board for a feature article and cover photo. 

Thanks to Alana and Eden for their dedication to shedding light on crucial issues and for helping to raise awareness about the resources available in our area. 

To learn more about autism and local resources, see page 14 in this issue of The Springs Magazine. 

Thanks to Erin Baber for her layout and design skills in pulling together all the elements to bring our cover to life. 

And, as always, we appreciate You – Our Readers!  Have a happy and blessed summer!
