“Join Thursday’s Gun Violence Prevention ZOOM
“Guns Down America” + IL GVP Updates
Our Guns Down America speakers - https://www.gunsdownamerica.org/
Our Guns Down America speakers - https://www.gunsdownamerica.org/ - will definitely inspire you - and fill you with a sense of hope as they share what they are doing and what each of us can do to make a difference in these unpredictable and changing times._
Started in 2016 to highlight how the gun industry utilizes the gun lobby, politicians and corporate America to “push” their product into our society, Guns Down America - and the work they are doing - is vital in addressing the public health crisis we are facing:
“Guns Down America is taking back public life from the gun industry. We champion consumers and challenge corporate control to get the churches, grocery stores, bars, music festivals, and other places we get together back from the shadow of the gun violence epidemic.”
We will also hear from several survivor speakers, including Maria Pike and Shundra Robinson, who will both share about their current work in the Chicagoland community to provide support and encouragement to fellow survivors and their families.
And as we do each month, we will have time to discuss state gun violence prevention legislative updates, gun violence prevention related news stories and share strategies on what you can do to take action to help create safer communities.
