Providence, Rhode Island In response to a tragic December campus shooting that left two students dead and nine others injured, Brown University has announced a new healing and recovery programme called the Brown Ever True initiative. The initiative aims to support students, staff, and faculty as the community continues to cope with the aftermath of the violence on campus.
University officials said the project will include a comprehensive range of services, from mental health counselling and wellness support to ongoing dialogue and remembrance events. Leaders stressed the importance of fostering a safe and united campus environment while addressing the emotional impacts on students and families directly affected by the incident.
The initiative was developed in collaboration with student representatives, campus leaders, and mental health professionals. It seeks to create spaces for healing, reflection, and education about community resilience and campus safety, as well as offer long‑term support options beyond the initial recovery period.
Brown’s president highlighted that the university remains committed to ensuring that students feel heard and supported. The Ever True initiative also plans to host workshops, group support sessions, and special remembrance events throughout the semester.
The university’s announcement comes as national conversations continue about campus security measures and student wellbeing. Brown officials say that this programme is part of a larger commitment to student safety, mental health resources, and building a stronger, more connected campus community in the months ahead.
