SMART Week August 26-30, 2024

One of the smartest things adults can do to keep kids, classrooms, and communities safe from gun violence is raise awareness about secure gun storage. SMART Week is all about educating communities on the simple steps that everyone — gun owners and non-gun owners alike — can take right now to prevent gun violence:

  • Secure all guns in homes and vehicles

  • Model responsible behavior around guns

  • Ask about the presence of unsecured firearms in other homes your child visits

  • Recognize the role of guns in suicide

  • Tell your peers to Be SMART
