12 years ago today, we were shocked by the Sandy Hook massacre. Countless innocent lives were lost due to senseless violence. It is critical that we continue working for comprehensive & rational gun violence solutions to advance public safety. @Everytown @NYAGV1 @sandyhook

Since 2016, the % of people receiving mental health services in jail has increased by ~32%. This increase could be due to many factors but the underlying implication is we need to continue to invest in services for people who are currently in custody, but also after the fact.
