Unmask the truth. 🎃

Flavored vapes may seem appealing, but sweet flavors can mask the risks of ni****ne addiction and exposure to harmful substances. Don't let the flavor fool you. Protect your health. Protect your community.

Choose health over flavored vapes.

With everyone out and about on Halloween, it is very important to make sure you are safe and seen. Walk on sidewalks and cross the street at crosswalks while looking left, right and left again before crossing. Make eye contact with drivers before crossing in front of them. If there are no sidewalks, make sure to walk facing traffic, so they see you. Be aware of cars that are backing out of driveways or turning.

🎀 October’s pink ribbons remind us that awareness is more than just wearing pink. It’s about knowing the facts, getting checked, and supporting the people we care about. Small actions can make a meaningful difference.

If you’re supporting the cause through a “pink” purchase this month, take a moment to check where your dollar is going. Not every purchase funds research that makes a difference or helps people facing breast cancer.

If you know of local businesses or organizations donating to help patients, families, or research, drop them in the comments so others can support too. 💗 Together, we can do more than raise awareness. We can help make sure support reaches those who need it.

If the cost of breast cancer screening is a concern, Women’s Way may be able to provide assistance. Call 800-449-6636 or visit hhs.nd.gov/womensway for more information.
