School Shootings
It’s a scenario that no parent wants to imagine: their child being caught in the crosshairs of a school shooting.
The tragedy that unfolded at Sandy Hook Elementary School and countless other incidents since then have made us all realize that no place is safe from gun violence, not even our schools.
Gun violence and school shootings are a uniquely American epidemic. Sandy Hook Promise is shining a light on these vital facts and statistics.
violence in America
Each day 12 children die from gun violence in America. Another 32 are shot and injured.
Every number you see stands for a person, often a child, with hopes, dreams, and loved ones who cherished them.
We wondered about the children who were represented by these numbers. What did they want to be when they grew up? What was their favorite color? What made them laugh?
That is the reality
There were more school shootings in 2022 -46- than in any year since Columbine. This mirrored America’s broader rise in gun violence as it emerged from the pandemic.
That is the reality of childhood and education in the United States in 2023.
Over the past year, hearts have been shattered by the war crimes committed against children in Ukraine (over eight thousand civilians have already been killed in that conflict), and yet Americans are almost completely numb to the horrors experienced by children here.

It’s time for a change. Enough is enough. Every day, we hear about another school shooting. It’s a serious problem that we need to address head-on.
Children and families in the U.S. are facing a vast problem, but you can help. Share these facts, know the signs, and let’s act to protect them before it’s too late.
It's time for us to come together
