Keynote with ASL: Safer Schools: Students, Educators, & Mental Health One Year After Uvalde
On May 24, 2022, 19 schoolchildren and two educators were killed at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, in the second deadliest such shooting in U.S. history. The tragedy raised questions not only about gun safety and policing, but also about mental health, social media, loneliness, and the erosion of student well-being that began even before COVID-19. In partnership with The Texas Tribune, Sewell Chan, editor in chief, will moderate a panel with health and education experts and with the parent of a child whose life was taken in Uvalde.
