Dispatchers at Newtown Emergency Communications Center have been in the pink this month, thanks to special shirts and sweatshirts they have been wearing in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
NECC Director Maureen Will said staff have worn the black T-shirts with pink highlights and the pink sweatshirts all month “as a reminder for those who have been lost to cancer and a gentle reminder to us all to get those health checks — women and men.”
