Sandy Hook Promise, a non-profit group that teaches students and adults to detect signs of gun violence and deter school shootings, released a horrifying public service announcement Wednesday that shows school children using school supplies to try to fend off an attack.
Co-founded by Mark Barden and Nicole Hockley, who both lost children in the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December of 2012, Sandy Hook Promise says it has trained more than 7.5 million people to identify at-risk behavior through it’s “Know the Signs” program.
Hockley said Sandy Hook Promise’s goal with its latest PSA is to “to wake up parents to the horrible reality that our children endure.” Waking parents up in general is a great place to start. Kudos.
