It seems appropriate that we open our August 11 program focusing on Call Before You Dig - since it's National 8-1-1 Day! So, sit tight and get all the information you need to know about this critical public safety program that identifies any underground utilities that may be in the way of where you want to dig - whether it's in your garden, putting up a new mailbox, or excavating to put in a pool, foundation or landscape feature.

Then we'll celebrate the 2024 honorees who will be introduced at the Girl Scouts of Connecticut's Annual Legacy of Leadership fundraising event coming up in September in Bridgeport. We'll catch up with the organization's new CEO and chat briefly with all three of these legacy honorees.

And we'll close circling back with the CEO of New Haven's Cornell Scott-Hill Health Center. A recent story about the abrupt closing of another similar facility in town got us thinking about agencies that will be facing even greater challenges as the regional pool of mental health and addiction service providers continues to dry up. Find out how another one of these remaining agencies is reacting and responding.
