Newtown Police Officer Maryhelen McCarthy and Newtown Health District Director Donna Culbert stand beside a banner at Fairfield Hills reminding residents that in 2014, more than one person each day committed suicide in Connecticut. The banner is bordered by 353 yellow ribbons representing those victims, a number both Ms McCarthy and Ms Culbert fear may be significantly understated. (Voket photo)
