Advocacy Opportunities

Write to Local Officials
When important policy issues come up, let your local elected officials know what you think by sending them a message.

Call Your Representatives
Give your local representatives a call to ask for their support on Sandy Hook Promise-backed laws.

Policies You’ll Champion as a Volunteer

School Safety
Let's make sure there are more programs to prevent violence and suicide among young people. Our original policies support student mental health and wellbeing at school.

Home Safety
We're pushing for laws that
encourage secure storage of firearms to prevent child-involved shootings. Plus, we want to help gun owners by allowing firearms to be temporarily transferred away from a person experiencing a crisis. .

Community Safety
We're backing policy  to make the background checks system better. We’re also working to raise the age to purchase a semi-automatic rifle. And we're saying no to ads that try to get kids interested in guns.
