We appreciate the concern that community member Allison Bradford expressed for the families of Juan Flores and the other victim, whose family wishes to remain anonymous. However, Ms. Bradford's letter to the Arizona Star is woefully inaccurate and misinformed. Goodwill Southern Arizona has worked closely with the families since the horrific shooting, doing all we can to ensure they are supported emotionally and financially, while also supporting the Flores family's efforts to do additional fundraising. Medical expenses for both victims are being covered fully by Goodwill of Southern Arizona. Beyond that, it would be inappropriate to share details on what our support looks like, for several reasons the most important of which is that it distracts from where our community's focus should be: Supporting these families in this challenging time.
