We turn research into action.
The Coalition equips legislators, decision-makers, and the general public with the evidence-based knowledge and tools to prevent gun violence in all its forms. From fact sheets to webinars, workshops to film screenings, we make the latest gun violence prevention data accessible to every community member.
Every one of us has a role to play in making sure our communities have accurate information about gun violence and the evidence-based solutions that work. Together, we can end this public health crisis and save lives.
