Instances of gunfire on school grounds hit a record high this year—a reminder that schools need to prioritize proactive measures to prevent gun violence instead of relying on reactionary, traumatic active shooter drills that do little to prevent school shootings.
Join @studentsdemand, @DemandPa, @enoughplaysproject and @lalatellsastory on SAT OCT 2 (1-2:30 PST) to workshop and talk about your #ENOUGH play, and about the importance of writing the change you want to see in the world. For writers in Grades 6-12: bit.ly/lgunderson_workshop

Youth firearm suicide in America is at a near all-time high, but these tragedies can be prevented. This month and always, check in on your loved ones, check in on yourself, and reach out for help if you need it.

@DemandPa @MomsDemand thanks our Congressional hero @MadeleineDean for never ever looking away from the great sadness caused by gun violence and for fighting for common sense reform. You are a brave and honorable politician. #KeepGoing
The violence and heartbreak is preventable. Universal background checks and closing the Charleston loophole will save lives. #EnoughIsEnough
