In Episode 1, we discuss the origins of AFFIRM at the Aspen Institute. Dr(s). Christopher Barsotti and Megan Ranney share their perspectives on firearm injury and suicide in their local communities and hospitals. Throughout their experiences and research, they felt a need to expand the conversation surrounding firearm injury and suicide prevention to other communities around the nation. This brought them to Springfield, Missouri, which will be further highlighted in Episode 2.
