More details about this new recognition of Little Falls Village by the NCOA will be coming soon. \n  \nVaccination Photos. A Little Falls Village volunteer may also request to take a photo. Again\, please say ‘no’ if you are at all uncomfortable. However\, both the NCOA and Little Falls Village would like to get the word out that regular vaccinations are an important part of looking after the health and well-being of the community! Photos and quotes from participants will certainly help.
