Mental Health: Sue Klebold and the Family Aftermath
Sue Klebold is the author of A Mother’s Reckoning: Living in the Aftermath of Tragedy, and is a staunch advocate for mental health awareness, research, and suicide prevention. Sue is the mother of Dylan Klebold, one of the shooters in the attack on Columbine High School in 1999. With her story, Sue wrestles with questions surrounding a mother trying to comprehend the incomprehensible, and aims to make others aware of signs of distressed mental health, hoping that her advocacy will one day prevent similar tragedy. Dr. Richard Bonnie will join Sue on stage for discussions and questions.
