Gun violence prevention groups
Gun violence prevention groups are organizations dedicated to reducing the incidence of gun-related injuries and deaths. They advocate for policy changes, such as stricter background checks and safe storage laws, to promote responsible gun ownership and reduce access to firearms for individuals at risk, such as those with a history of violence or mental health issues. These groups often engage in public education campaigns, support research on gun violence, and work with communities to create safer environments. Their ultimate goal is to create policies and awareness that help protect individuals and communities from the consequences of gun violence.
