This morning John Voket and the award-winning For the People invites you to take a little swim for a great cause August 3 in this year's Swim Across the Sound. Learn how to participate as a swimmer or volunteer to help St. Vincent's Medical Center Foundation.
Then we'll tell you how to be a superhero for families supporting loved ones with Autism Spectrum Disorder. We'll visit with a team from the Hospital for Special Care to learn about plans to build a new inpatient unit and first-of-its kind hospital program for those on the spectrum right here in Connecticut.
And we'll close with a researcher and oncologist from Starling Physicians, talking about their scalp-cooling technology to help patients undergoing chemotherapy keep their hair.
