I would like to take an opportunity to voice my opinion on an issue that impacts the Village I have called home for the last 21 years (I am 21 years old). In January of this year, I was sworn in as an Ada Village Councilor. I looked forward to representing my community and surrounding myself with people who want the best for their community.

Cancer screening tests are an important part of health care, especially for women. Getting cancer screenings at the time they are recommended helps to find cancer-related changes before you develop any symptoms, or sometimes before you fully develop cancer. When cancers are found and treated early, survival rates are high, and getting routine screenings can save lives.
