Today is National Gun Violence Awareness Day. Wear Orange is about more than raising awareness. It is also an opportunity to think about the many actionable steps we can all take to protect our families and communities.
Whether or not you own a gun, it’s critical to understand the importance of secure gun storage. This weekend and throughout the year, start the conversation. By working together and spreading the word about secure firearm storage, we can create a culture of safety that benefits our children and communities and saves lives.
Learn more about Be SMART and secure storage at www.BeSMARTforKids.org.
