On the Eve of the first anniversary of the Sandy Hook School shootings, our thoughts and prayers are with the families and friends of the 20 first-graders and 6 educators who died, those who survived, and the community affected by this tragic event. This week there has been much attention focused on the need for school safety, the weaknesses in the mental health care system and the challenges of addressing violence in our country.

For some people, a day without a cloud in a sky is a blessing. For others, it is a reminder of the worst day in their lives. At Voices of September 11th we understand both feelings. For more than 12 years, we have worked with 9/11 families, rescue workers and survivors. We remain committed to helping families commemorate their loved ones through the 9/11 Living Memorial Project, which will be a core component of the 9/11 Memorial Museum.

It seems that a day doesn't go by that 9/11 is not in the news - whether it is a story about a movie or television show, conflict in the Middle East, or once again, an incident of mass violence. Our hearts go out to all of those who lost loved ones in the shooting in Washington, D.C. We know all too well the path they will be on and how difficult that journey will be over the years.
