EPISODE 33, SEASON 2: This is a sobering interview with the CEO & Founder of Roca- a nonprofit that works directly with 16-24 year-olds "most likely to be shot or to shoot" in cities across Massachusetts, Maryland and soon Connecticut. This rich and insightful conversation touches on understanding the brain science of trauma, having a functioning criminal justice system, partnering with police, fighting for policy change, and most of all- getting guns off the street and out of the hands of our kids.
