Good grief! It’s gosling time already. We admitted these two separately this week after they became separated from their families.  We hope to release them into the care of a wild Canada goose foster family. In the meantime we’re keeping our faces covered and avoiding any unnecessary interaction with these kids to prevent imprinting. Geese are particularly susceptible to this, so please never care for them yourself, even for a day. They must remain wild to have a chance of returning to goose world. 📷: Rachel Frank

Kouri Richins, a Utah mother who wrote a children’s book on grief after her husband’s death, has been sentenced to life in prison without parole for his murder.

Over 4,000 young Americans are alive today who might not be — because of the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline we built together. The grief of losing a child is something that no parent should ever have to know. We launched 988 in 2022. We invested in it. We fought for it. And now the data is in: an 11% drop in youth suicide. Thousands of kids who picked up the phone instead of giving up. In my view, that’s what government is supposed to do.
