ConnectiCare has always been dedicated to the health of the communities it serves. This past year, under the weight of the COVID-19 pandemic, that mission was more important than ever.

GermBarriers 200 is a heavy duty, deodorizing one-step disinfectant / cleaner solution that kills 99.9% of viruses, bacteria, plus mold and mildew on contact. It also forms a continuous bacteriostatic and fungistatic physical barrier on surfaces.

We are actively seeking photographs, mugshots, documents, memorabilia and ephemera pertaining to crime, punishment and the police. While particular emphasis is on the pre-1940 era and Norwalk specifically, we are interested in viewing or hearing about all items that fall within the above categories regardless of location or time period.

Deadline for submissions: March 31, 2021

JA of Greater Fairfield County is launching a brand-new virtual career exploration fair this spring, JA Inspire Virtual! On May 4, 2021, students, educators, and local companies will come together for this one-of-a-kind virtual event, designed to help students build a brighter future for themselves.

Students often begin their career exploration with an unclear focus, and after participating in JA programs and events like JA Inspire Virtual, they become more motivated and sure of their direction. JA Inspire Virtual offers students the opportunity to learn about local high-growth industries and careers, and the education required for these jobs, with real insight from industry professionals. For businesses, the event provides great brand exposure and a chance to build your future workforce.
