October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

California Highway Patrol stands with those affected by breast cancer, including survivors, those currently fighting, caregivers, families, and loved ones.

Throughout the month, you may notice CHP officers wearing a breast cancer awareness pin on their uniforms; a small symbol of support for those affected by this disease.

Breast cancer can impact anyone. Early detection can make a difference, so take the time to know your risk, schedule recommended screenings, and encourage the people you love to do the same.

Together, we can raise awareness, show support, and remind those facing breast cancer that they are never alone. 💗

The statewide Tribal-Traffic Education Program (TTEP) provides free traffic safety education and resources for drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists on or near tribal lands throughout California. Programming can be adapted for all ages and addresses important safety topics, including proper child passenger restraint use and the dangers of impaired driving.

The California Highway Patrol recognizes the importance of honoring Indigenous communities, acknowledging their enduring legacy, and respecting the sovereignty and cultural heritage of Tribal Nations throughout California and beyond. Today, we recognize Indigenous Peoples’ Day and honor the rich histories, cultures, traditions, and contributions of Indigenous peoples and Tribal Nations.

Funding for this program is provided by a grant from the California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
