MSNBC anchor Craig Melvin has spent years covering mass shootings around the country, but the issue of gun violence hit even closer to home when his five-year-old son recently participated in a lock-down drill during his first week of school.

According to the network, the audience will include survivors of gun violence, students, family members of those impacted, elected officials and gun violence prevention advocates.
