    Resource for Mass Violence Victims

    in Community Violence Resources

    The TRANSCEND app was developed by the National Mass Violence and Victimization Resource Center (NMVVRC) for survivors, their families, and anyone who would like to support those affected by mass violence. The app allows users to learn about the impact of mass violence and practice coping strategies that are useful in managing emotional and behavioral reactions to trauma. Strategies for calming the body, managing distressing thoughts, maintaining healthy levels of activity, coping with loss, asking for help, and helping others are covered. Transcend offers survivors and those seeking to help others the option of exploring the coping resources within the app, or taking a brief assessment to direct them to sections that might be most helpful. Hopefully this app is helpful as you and your community work to move forward and rise above mass violence. Access TRANSCEND from your smart devices at these links (or search for “TRANSCEND NMVC” in the App or Play Stores):
