Meet the Connecticut Cancer Foundation a premier nonprofit that has supported over 8,000 families struggling with the disease, along with devoting millions to cancer research. We'll hear about their No Shave CT activities and get a preview of what's to come for the foundation's celebrity-studded gala early next year.

Then we'll be talking with an environmental expert from H2M architects + engineers about the water we drink and that flows through our households and communities — and the increasing risks of the various contaminants that could impact our personal and public health.

And we'll close with Goodwill of Western and Northern CT which is locating and recruiting veterans facing homelessness to better support them in finding stable places to live, new jobs and careers, and a number of other services - and how you can support local service members at Goodwill's Stand Up for Veterans on November 18.
