The Humana Foundation is investing $1 million to boost mental health resources in Louisville, Ky., following a shooting that killed five people at a bank in the city and another shooting outside a community college that killed one person. Both shootings occurred April 10.
The $1 million investment will go to organizations that can "help drive equitable access to mental health services, aid with trauma support and help build a sense of community," according to an April 12 Humana news release.
Humana is based in Louisville.
"Violence is a public health issue and one that is significantly impacting the mental health of our community," Humana Foundation Chairman David Jones Jr. said in the release. "It is hindering the growth and prosperity of Louisville — a fact that was called out in the recent Greater Louisville Project report. We must find ways to work together to build a better, and safer, city."
