Kyle Kashuv (born c. 2001/2002) is a survivor of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting on February 14, 2018, Second Amendment advocate, and mobile app developer. Since the shooting, he has met personally with President Donald J. Trump as well as other politicians from both the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. Following the shooting, Kashuv has received media coverage for his views on the Second Amendment and criticisms of fellow students Emma Gonzalez and David Hogg, who are gun control advocates.

Smartphone app

Kashuv is developing a smart phone app that he self-funded that allows bullied or emotionally struggling students to seek help more easily. “We definitely understand we have a lacking in the department for emotional support at our schools,” Kashuv said in an interview on Fox Business, "And right now we clearly see a lot of movement in legislation trying to enact that.” Kashuv went on to say, "“I am right now working on an app … to help moms maybe volunteer at school for emotional support,” he added. The app is called ReachOut, and is currently in the final stages of development. The app allows people to volunteer for emotional support sessions at their local schools, and gives bullied and emotionally struggling students to chat with each other in a private chatroom.
