October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an annual campaign to raise awareness of this complex disease and fund research into its causes, treatment, and cure. Since 1985, individuals, businesses, and communities have come together every October to show their support for the many people affected by breast cancer. Breast Cancer Awareness Month can be a time to reflect, give back, or even celebrate. Our thoughts and prayers are with those battling this disease. Mayor Ernie Talerico has issued this Proclamation.
