Reset with Sasha-Ann Simons - Shot And Forgotten: The Hidden Crisis Among Chicagoans Surviving Gun Violence

Of every six people shot in Chicago, five survive. But while much of the attention from the media, law enforcement, city leaders and the public is on homicides, there is a hidden crisis across the city: survivors face physical, psychological and emotional recovery with little to know help. In Part One (of three) of our collaboration with the nonprofit newsroom The Trace, Reset learns the stories of survivors of gun violence in Chicago: what resources they need, and what recovery looks like without it. For more Reset interviews, subscribe to this podcast. And please give us a rating to help other listeners find us. For more about Reset, go to wbez.org and follow us on Twitter @WBEZReset

Consider This from NPR - How Climate Change Is Making Storms Like Ida Even Worse

Hurricane Ida's winds intensified rapidly as the storm approached coastal Louisiana over the weekend — making landfall at its most powerful. NPR's Rebecca Hersher explains how Ida was supercharged by climate change.

Now the hurricane's remnants are moving north and east, where millions are bracing for flooding and tornado threats. Janey Camp with Vanderbilt University tells NPR why climate change means flooding will become more common in areas where people haven't been accustomed to it in the past.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment that will help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
