How can we help each other process what happened together?

In recent weeks, the tragedy at RVHS has impacted all of us. Given that our country is already in a time of collective grief and tensions, the incident may have affected you in ways you could not expect.

We are hoping to offer a small, safe, yet courageous community circle for you to process your thoughts and emotions with others. We can journey through this hard moment in small ways together.
