Image description: The image is a promotional graphic for Achieva, its partners, and its "Our Health" Project. The graphic features an Asian boy with Down syndrome and his father. The father has dark hair that is showing some gray, wearing a light colored button up shirt. The young boy is wearing glasses and a striped shirt, seated on a playground toy. They are enjoying a fun day outside. Overlaid on the image is a stylized outline of the state of Pennsylvania, filled with white space and text. The text within the Pennsylvania shape reads: "Not sure how to get your student help for their learning or support needs at school? Help is available." The words "Help is available" are in a teal color, drawing the eye. In the lower left corner, the "achieva" logo is present, with the text "The Arc of Greater Pittsburgh" beneath it. Below the logo is a line of text that reads, "To learn more about our partners and the 'Our Health' Project, visit Achieva.info/OurHealthInfo."
