“Seeing something that disturbing is just painful to watch and…my heart goes out to them,” she said during an interview with This Morning CBS.

“On February 14, one of the worst mass shootings in American history took place. These students were in school that day. Please welcome them to the stage,” she explained to the crowd.

“It has nothing to do with politics. It’s about healing. It was how can we help these students heal from what they’ve been through? These students that came here today and shared their stories are so incredibly brave and courageous and they really are warriors in my eyes.”

Demi‘s show kicked off with a CAST on Tour pre-concert session for concertgoers who had the chance to hear Demi and others share their personal stories and speak about the topic of mental health awareness. The session was led by Mike Bayer, Founder/CEO of CAST Centers and Chairman of the CAST Foundation.
