NCC Community Hills Early Learning Center observed National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October by “thinking pink.” Students and staff at CHELC donned pink outfits, marched and displayed signs to raise awareness about breast cancer within the school community. According to the American Cancer Society, risk factors for breast cancer (not related to personal choice) include aging, genetic factors and family history, as well as (related to personal choice) alcohol consumption (increases risk) and physical activity (decreases risk).
