We have just received news that a young man in our community was shot, and survived, this afternoon near Humboldt High School. We understand that community members including children witnessed this traumatic event. Our hearts go out to all who were impacted. Below are resources you can access if you need support.

At WSCO, we believe in the power of community to keep each other safe, to heal from violence, and to build a neighborhood where all of us, no matter our age, race, or background, can live without fear. Please reach out to us at [email protected] if you are interested in organizing with our Community Care Action Circle.
