Armed Guards At Florida's Public Schools

Florida Matters

After the Parkland school shooting last February, a new Florida law requires public schools to put armed guards on every campus. Host Robin Sussingham talks about the practical ramifications of that with Superintendent Kurt Browning of Pasco County; Superintendent Jacqueline Byrd of Polk County; and Bridget Ziegler, chairwoman of the Sarasota County School Board.

Support for Florida Matters More comes from the National Foundation for Transplants. Right now, hundreds of Tampa residents need an organ transplant they can't afford. You can join the National Foundation for Transplant's "Operation Second Chance" -- at transplants.org to learn how to help give someone a second chance at life.

And we're also grateful for the support of the Florida Department of Health! If you or a loved one need information about medical marijuana, the Florida Department of Health provides resources on qualifying medical conditions, physicians and approved treatment centers at flhealth.gov/OMMU.
