They encourage all worshipers to understand how to stop the bleeding if someone is shot or stabbed.

There were 3 in Trenton last year.

Thanks for the stats. I suppose I could have adjusted my phrasing to specify a shooting where people congregate. Drive by mass shootings are also a problem.

I'm certain these kits have the potential to help outside the houses of worship as well. I would hope they would use the kits on anyone who needs them.
