As we mourn alongside those affected, we must continue working toward a future where violence is prevented before it occurs. Most mass shooters display #warningsigns before carrying out an attack. By learning those signs, we can help prevent future tragedies and #ProtectOurKids.

We stand with the Muscatine community following the tragic shooting that took the lives of six family members, including students and school staff. 💔

This tragedy has impacted families, students, educators, and an entire community.

All students deserve to feel safe, included, and welcome at school. LGBTQ+ students experience bullying at more than twice the rate of their peers, a reality that can lead to lasting harm. Visit https://t.co/rozq8WbS63 to learn more.

“We celebrate… We mourn.” Those were the words shared at graduation for Deon Wiley III, a 17-year-old senior who was shot and killed after attending prom, just days before commencement.

Graduation should celebrate a future ahead, not remind us of one taken too soon.

May is #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth 💚

Too many students are struggling in silence. Stigma keeps them from asking for help, and that has to change.

Connection, inclusivity, and safe schools aren't just nice to have. They're life-changing.

The 2026 #KeepEveryHomeSafeAct (HB909) was introduced in Ohio & assigned to committee. This legislation is a roadmap for keeping firearms secure at all times - whether they're being carried or stored. A few easy steps can keep guns out of the hands of children & prevent tragedy.

💔 A 2-year-old boy in Chicago's Pullman community died Sunday after accidentally shooting himself in the head inside his home. This is a heartbreaking and preventable tragedy. Secure storage helps prevent child-involved accidental shootings.

Mississippi has had at least 100 mass shootings since 2020 — and guns are the #1 leading cause of death for children in the state. Mississippi also holds the highest firearm death rate in the entire U.S.

In the wake of unimaginable loss, it can be hard to know how to move forward - but healing is possible.

Communities that lean on each other, prioritize connection, and seek support have shown us that resilience can grow even in the darkest of times.

From San Diego to Austin, Baltimore, and Detroit, these recent shootings highlight urgent warning signs we cannot ignore - unsecured firearms, online radicalization, youth in crisis, and missed opportunities for intervention. We all have a role to play in protecting young people.

[Sandy Hook Promise @sandyhook]

A heartbreaking pattern is emerging across the country: teens accessing firearms, warning signs missed, and communities devastated by violence that could be prevented.

Our hearts are with everyone mourning the devastating attack on the Islamic Center of San Diego.

What happened in California is a reminder that bias and hate toward race, religion, and identity are warning signs for real-world violence. More at https://t.co/IOidoAH0Ms
