SECOND CUP - We continued our conversation surrounding the victims and families of the Orlando Shooting at Pulse nightclub.

Dr. Sally Karioth, a local grief and stress counselor talked about some effective measures you can take to help out your neighbors who are impacted by this tragedy.

Dr. Karioth said focus on those day-to-day activities, like take a person's garbage out, bring someone food, offer to carpool. Just making small gestures can go a long way.

Also, if someone needs help encourgage them to talk to someone, many people close themselves off and thta's not any way to deal with trauma.
