FREE Firearm Safety Presentation – “Be SMART”
Every year in the United States, at least 100 children aged 17 and under die in unintentional shootings, and over 500 die by suicide with a firearm. Many of these deaths are entirely preventable with responsible gun safety and storage. The “Be SMART” program is a non-partisan public education campaign designed to reduce child deaths by educating adults - parents, grandparents and others - in how to help prevent these deaths by using 5 simple strategies:
Secure all guns in your home and vehicles
Model responsible behavior around guns
Ask about the presence of unsecured guns in other homes
Recognize the risks of teen suicide
Tell your peers to “Be SMART”
