Earlier this month, four St. Louis-area children died as a result of guns over the course of just five days. St. Louis Public Radio’s Rachel Lippmann discusses the ongoing violence and related trauma that many children in the region face – as well as resources and ideas for a way forward. Joining the conversation are Erica Jones, who has lost both a 7-year-old godson and an adult daughter to guns in recent years; Dr. Brad W. Warner, the Jessie L. Ternberg MD PhD Distinguished Professor of Pediatric Surgery at Washington University School of Medicine and surgeon-in-chief at St. Louis Children's Hospital; and Dr. Nicole Wilson, pediatric surgery fellow at St. Louis Children's Hospital.
