Did you know that the third Sunday of November is World Day of Remembrance for Road Traffic Victims (WDR)? In part, this day is a reminder that safety is extremely important when traveling.
It is a global event to remember the millions who have been killed and seriously injured on the world’s roads and to acknowledge the suffering of all affected victims, families, and communities. To those who are missing friends and loved ones as a result of traffic accidents, our condolences are with you.
On WDR, we also pay tribute to the dedicated emergency crews, police and medical professionals, who deal daily with the traumatic aftermath of road crashes. Thank you for your life-saving work.

Did you know that TCHD has a public health vending machine at the entrance of our building (897 E. Iron Ave, Dover)? The public health vending machine is accessible 24/7, is available to the public free of cost, and is stocked with public health supplies. Product menus and instructions, in both English & Spanish, are located on the front of the vending machine. The supplies in the vending machine are subject to change but can include naloxone (Narcan), feminine hygiene products, first aid kits, hygiene kits, condoms, and Deterra drug deactivation bags for safe disposal of medications.
