Gun Violence Prevention Programs

Gun Violence Prevention Programs are initiatives designed to reduce injuries and deaths caused by firearms. They include policies like background checks, safe storage laws, and restrictions on certain weapons, as well as community outreach, education, and support services. These programs aim to address factors contributing to gun violence—such as crime, accidents, and mental health issues—by promoting responsible gun ownership, improving enforcement, and fostering safe environments. The goal is to prevent unnecessary harm while respecting lawful gun use and individual rights.
