Each day, at least 8 children and teenagers suffer unintentional gunshot wounds inside the supposed safety of a home, which we at Brady call family fire: a shooting involving an improperly stored or misused gun in the home that results in death or injury. In this episode, Kyleanne Hunter, Vice President of Programs for Brady and a Marine Corps combat veteran, talks with us about how firearm owners and non-owners alike can work toward a gun violence-free future by participating in the End Family Fire initiative.

Following the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas high school in Parkland, Florida, Luigi the service dog took it upon his golden retriever shoulders to help ease the return of students and teachers to their classrooms. In this episode, we learn how service animals can contribute to the recovery process of a traumatic event, and we hear about Luigi's efforts from one of his biggest admirers: Ivy Schamis, a Marjory Stoneman Douglas history teacher who survived the atrocity committed at her school.
