Summary
The board proclaimed October 2025 Breast Cancer Awareness Month; a local survivor encouraged community members to get screened and commissioners urged residents to support friends and family through prevention and care.
The Sandoval County Board of County Commissioners proclaimed October 2025 as Breast Cancer Awareness Month and heard brief remarks from a local survivor urging screening.
