PODCAST: Breakdown

Episode 6: ‘I Think There’s Hope’

December 31, 2024

In the aftermath of Lewiston, healing and recovery is taking many forms. One shooting location was renovated and reopened. Another has become a nonprofit that serves some of the area’s most vulnerable residents. One victim’s father now advocates for increased gun control while dozens of others have joined a lawsuit against the federal government. And the shooter’s sister has made it her mission to raise awareness about traumatic brain injury among military service members.

In our final episode of “Breakdown,” we look at how some have turned their anguish into action.
