Thank you to all who joined us for the 2023 R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center Celebration to honor and celebrate our extraordinary trauma care teams and remarkable partners within Maryland's EMS system.

Funds from this year’s event benefit Shock Trauma’s Violence Prevention Program (VPP), which provides trauma-informed care and support to patients who are injured as the result of gun violence and other violent crime. The goal of the program is to reduce the likelihood that patients will be re-hospitalized due to violent injury.

Read the full event news release here.

At the celebration, guests heard the incredible stories of Scott Spitnale and Ellen Lightman, each brought to Shock Trauma critically ill. We invite you to watch the feature video that tells the story of these two individuals and the hundreds of medical professionals who directly touched and aided in their recovery journey.

Thank you to our generous sponsors
