National Hazing Prevention Week (NHPW) is a national initiative that occurs during the last full week of September each year, and aims to raise awareness and increase education about hazing. It encourages communities, institutions, organizations, and individuals to engage in intentional discussions about the problem of hazing.

What's the Tennessee 11? The Tennessee 11 (T11) is a documentary that was produced by Builders (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbuildersmovement.org%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cmarc.massicotte%40uconn.edu%7C685bef421baf444a8a8e08dd67a3763f%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C638780673949203991%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=sNk6DonVoZLxEuFpiVY2PZjs5yaC5Xn55yWmp6P%2Bf9Y%3D&reserved=0) (formerly "Starts With Us"), an organization focused on facilitating civil dialogue around polarizing topics in America. The documentary follows 11 Tennesseans (that are ideologically diverse on this issue – and probably many others) as they work to find consensus on firearms policies or interventions. Builders convened the T11 after the Covenant School (https://nam10.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tennessean.com%2Fstory%2Fnews%2Flocal%2F2023%2F03%2F31%2Finside-nashville-covenant-school-shooting-police-response%2F70061034007%2F&data=05%7C02%7Cmarc.massicotte%40uconn.edu%7C685bef421baf444a8a8e08dd67a3763f%7C17f1a87e2a254eaab9df9d439034b080%7C0%7C0%7C638780673949216546%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJFbXB0eU1hcGkiOnRydWUsIlYiOiIwLjAuMDAwMCIsIlAiOiJXaW4zMiIsIkFOIjoiTWFpbCIsIldUIjoyfQ%3D%3D%7C0%7C%7C%7C&sdata=mxlDD%2BGNjtkULpB6xHk6RljVPf7h4yRBwAeXPi4QPfU%3D&reserved=0) (in Nashville) shooting and (coincidentally) at the same time the Tennessee State Legislature was in session to debate potential new gun laws in Tennessee. The T11 were not direct victims of the Covenant School shooting, rather they are Tennesseans whose state was affected by tragedy. Like many Americans, some of them have other experiences with gun injury and those experiences certainly influence how they think about guns in America/ Tennessee.
