This episode may be sensitive for some listeners as we discuss the events of the senseless school shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas as well as school preparedness at the grade school level.

There are no words to describe how we are all feeling on the heels of another school shooting, but no one's pain is worse than the parents that have lost their own. Our hearts go out to all those families affected by this vile and senseless act.

In today's episode, we work through what we are both feeling, how the current times shape active shooter preparedness in schools, how “hard lockdown” drills work and why, red flags on social media and how to move through and take action.
