There is no question that mass violence is horrific – whether the result is death or injury or the impact is direct or indirect. Helping this group of trauma survivors is critical to the overall mental health of our nation and Give an Hour is ready to assist those who are affected.
Mass violence is defined in multiple ways by various entities.
