Touchpoints at Bloomfield held a “Pink Party” to honor breast cancer survivors and raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and is a chance to raise awareness about the importance of early detection of breast cancer. Touchpoints’ Therapeutic Recreation Director Cindy Payne is herself a breast cancer survivor and organized the event.

No one will ever forget the date September 11, 2001. Over the years, Touchpoints at Bloomfield has provided various types of programs in remembrance of what America went through that day.  To honor the day the community has held First Responders breakfasts and the residents and staff have made thank you cards to Fire, Police and EMS. In 2018, residents made flag pins and remembered the deep and profound tragedy of that day.
