Fall Quarterly Meeting

Thanks to everyone who joined us for our Fall Quarterly Meeting! We want to say a special thank you to Naoka Carey, JD, MEd, and Doctoral Candidate at Boston College, for providing us with such a detailed look at her research into trends around youth gun carrying. This kind of research is so important to ensure that we're making strong and targeted policy choices to prevent gun violence in every community. If you missed the meeting you can watch the recording below.

6/11 March For Our Lives Boston rally

Join the MA Coalition to Prevent Gun Violence at the March For Our Lives in Boston at 3pm on 6/11 at Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park, 110 Atlantic Ave, Boston, MA 02110.

In light of the tragedy at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, TX, March For Our Lives is demanding action by returning to our roots -- it’s time for another March For Our Lives. Since we last marched for gun violence prevention in 2018, we passed lifesaving legislation in states across the country. It’s time to hit the streets once again.
