As a result, we were able to equip a large number of psychologists to go into schools and communities carrying this message, enabling even more of our members to participate in the campaign than had been possible before. The forums are ongoing and some members of Congress are interested in carrying out related activities in their districts. We just ordered another 250,000 brochures, after distributing 300,000 of them. Now, we're looking at possible offshoots of the campaign. One potential area is helping parents, many of whom feel overwhelmed or powerless in the face of all this.
Parents are eager for information and help in how to talk about issues of violence with their kids.
Many don't feel that there is good communication between them and their parents or other adults. We think there may be some good public education campaign activities to facilitate better communication, whether it's about the warning signs of violence or other issues. We're also exploring workplace violence because of the extent of the problem that it creates for the culture right now. We're collecting data to see how big a problem it is in order to determine what might be useful. And last, but certainly not least, is our work with the White House and MTV to develop an antistigma public education campaign for teens.
