Since the Columbine High School shooting in 1999, more than 338,000 students in the United States have experienced gun violence in school.
School shootings lead to an increase in student absenteeism, antidepressant drug usage, and lower test scores. Research also shows that students exposed to school shootings are less likely to graduate high school, go to college, and be employed.
What challenges do survivors of school shootings face? What resources are available to help survivors thrive? And what can parents and schools do to support students after tragedy?
In this episode, Zoe Touray joins Kevin to share how we can support students after tragedy.
