Columbine Survivor Zach Cartaya, co-founder of The Rebels Project, tells us on @Newsy Morning Rush how PTSD sets in after such a traumatic event as a school shooting. He says even today he suffers from survivor's guilt as well.

When we filmed the @rebelsproject support group for mass shooting survivors, its co-founder told us that her path to healing from the trauma of the Columbine shooting has been long and winding. "I really started my journey at ten years. Ten years after the event."
In 2019, we reported from #Parkland one year after the Marjory Stoneman Douglas school shooting. We learned that the trauma of mass shootings lives on long past the event.

Proud of the work that @HeathLyMartin and @rebelsproject are doing to support mass shooting survivors. Truth be told, having her as a friend helped me tremendously as I navigated my own “new normal” after #Parkland. If you’re looking for a cause to support, consider this one. 💙 – at New York, USA

Traveling the US to meet with survivors of mass trauma, this is poignant storytelling via @LeahMillis; Columbine survivors started a nonpartisan support group @rebelsproject after Aurora Theater shooting. The group has over 1,000 members from 60 shootings. leahmillis.com/film/?fbclid=…

Unfortunately, this story continues to be relevant. Mass shooting survivors have been forming communities to help each other heal. I followed one group (@rebelsproject) for a year: widerimage.reuters.com/story… #massshooting #guns #shootings #Masstrauma #support #survivors #healing

"The term 'fully healed' is kind of ambiguous. You really do need to come to terms with the fact that you're not going to be the same person that you were before," Heather Martin of @rebelsproject says.
She is a survivor of the 1999 Columbine shooting.
