关于我们
Sandy Hook Promise (SHP) envisions a future where all children are free from school shootings and other acts of violence. As a national nonprofit organization, SHP’s mission is to educate and empower youth and adults to prevent violence in schools, homes, and communities. Creators of the life-saving, evidence-informed “Know the Signs” prevention programs, SHP teaches the warning signs of someone who may be in crisis, socially isolated, or at-risk of hurting themselves or others and how to get help. SHP also advances school safety, youth mental health, and responsible gun ownership at the state and federal levels through nonpartisan policy and partnerships. SHP is led by several family members whose loved ones were killed in the tragic mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School on December 14, 2012.

Another school shooting averted, this time in Florida. After more than 40 tips were submitted to our Say Something Anonymous Reporting System about a student’s threats, authorities confirmed the student had access to a weapon and a plan for attack. Thanks to the brave #Upstanders who spoke up, lives were saved. This marks 18 averted school shootings thanks to students and trusted adults recognizing the warning signs and speaking up.

Childhood should be filled with joy—not fear. However, our recent study found that for many kids, concerns about school safety are part of everyday life. Parents feel it, too, wondering if their child will come home safe. Gun violence is changing what it means to grow up in America. But school shootings are preventable. We all have a role in preventing gun violence—by recognizing warning signs, speaking up, and taking action, we can help #ProtectOurKids and their futures. Our new PSA, A Teddy Bear’s Dream, reminds us what’s at stake. Read the Parents article to learn more about our recent study and how you can be part of the solution. #SandyHookPromise #EndGunViolence #ProtectOurKids

A teddy bear is typically a symbol of childhood innocence, comfort, and play. But in a harrowing ad from nonprofit Sandy Hook Promise the stuffed animal serves as a stark reminder of how the gun violence epidemic is impacting childhoods across the U.S. https://adweek.it/3Dtd3a1

Our new PSA shares a heartbreaking truth: This isn't the childhood we imagine, but too often, it's the reality. “Teddy bears are a symbol of the innocence and childhood that’s lost. We want to let kids be kids. We want teddy bears to go back to being teddy bears and childhood companions rather than being part of a memorial to school shootings.” - Nicole Hockley Read the full Today Show article: https://lnkd.in/eqJqV24F Learn more about how you can help #EndGunViolence: https://lnkd.in/epFniYA8 #ProtectOurKids #SandyHookPromise

Today is one of the days that always hurts the most– it would have been my beautiful butterfly Dylan’s 19th birthday. Dylan would have been a freshman at college, or maybe he would have just started his very first job. I hope he still would have given me one of his deep, deep hugs, and maybe we would have celebrated later that night with his favorite dinner. I can only imagine the "would haves" because my baby boy is frozen in time, forever 6 years old. I’ve spent more birthdays without Dylan than I got to spend with him, and that will never get easier – no matter how many years go by. The pain is unbearable, but I have to keep going to make sure his death meant something. So this week, I'll channel my emotions into honoring my baby boy through this work to save lives. Knowing that, together, we’re protecting other children from gun violence will help get me through. Will you join me in remembering Dylan’s life and honoring his legacy by signing a special remembrance card for what would have been his 19th birthday?? Please click the link below to sign the card. https://lnkd.in/eM-xn4hE With love, Nicole Hockley (Dylan's Mom) #ProtectOurKids #EndGunViolence #SandyHookPromise #HonorwithAction
