Richmond Democratic Del. Dawn Adams

Richmond Democratic Del. Dawn Adams received a letter in June from a mother who had lost her son to gun violence in November 2021. It had been her son’s lifelong dream to graduate high school and get his diploma, but he had died before he finished his senior year.

Despite the family writing to the son’s school and requesting to receive his high school diploma, they were only awarded a certificate of completion on his behalf.
