Vegas Strong Center Invites Shooting Survivors To Join Group

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Vegas Strong Resiliency Center is extending an invitation to all survivors of the Oct. 1 Las Vegas shooting to gather for a therapy support group.

The Review-Journal reports the center released a statement on Friday, saying the holidays can be a triggering time for family and friends who are without loved ones.

Department of Health and Human Services psychologist Stephanie Woodward says "it's important not to suffer in silence."
