We built Survivors Empowered to help provide support for survivors and to be a catalyst in the fight to end gun violence.

July 20, 2022, marked a decade since our daughter and eleven other souls were murdered with an assault weapon in Aurora, Colorado.

Since 2012, the number of gun violence victims and devastated families has grown horrifically, with each year bringing an unprecedented number of people killed with guns in the United States.

Our goal remains... to connect people, survivors, and grassroots organizations across the country. We will be offering Mindfulness training to survivors, and we will continue to push for a national assault weapons ban and other efforts to reduce gun violence.

In 2023, Survivors Empowered was named one of CNN?s Champions for Change!
