The Empathy Project is a community response to gun violence in the City of Roanoke Virginia. The lives ended by gun violence are more than numbers. The victims were our neighbors, family members, and friends. Through the empathy project, we’re listening, and focusing our attention on these people and the shared loss of our community.
