The AP (4/18, Spencer, Kennedy, Slevin) reports on several personal stories about “the struggle” to provide mental health resources after a school shooting. Survivors of the Columbine school shooting started the Rebels Project, which became “a loose nationwide network of survivors of mass attacks.” The group “held a packed meeting for survivors and parents in Parkland this month, describing how they have learned to cope over the years through therapy, exercise and hobbies and assuring the Florida community that their pain is normal.”
