Firearm Injury Prevention can even be demonstrated by TV shows. I love The Rookie showing that having unsecured gun is not safe around children. Nanny fired for unsecured firearms while caring for detectives kids. Secure storage saves lives. Thanks The Rookie for reminding us!

The kids sent us to say. Guns silence thousands of lives every year. 'The Shotline' was created to bring these voices back using AI technology in order to call our representatives. I just placed a call to my senator using one of these voices/you can too. theshotline.org

I’m sorry but how are we arresting 11 year-olds. He is just a child. Come on Florida. Where did he get the gun? Clearly it was not legal for him to buy it? Either someone’s gun was not secured and stolen or some responsible adult did not secure gun. abcnews.go.com/US/11-year-arr…

So true and so sad! I say a prayer every time my kids drive off to school. One prayer that my teenage son drives safely and the other that no sad or depressed or angry child decides to shoot up there school. We do not have to live this way! This is preventable!

Yes! Yes! Yes! I love the form for principal’s across our nation and handouts for families!

Making a mistake is human. The justice system is not for children. Instead we adults should ask what happened to you. Thank you #aap for shedding a light on this problem!

This week is when we honor survivors of gun violence. It was chosen because the week marks the time when the US surpasses our peer nations with more people killed with guns in the US than are killed in our peer countries in an entire year. We don't have to live like this!

So inspiring to hear Dr. Quinlan and his Injury Prevention path. Along with outsized impact. An aside I am so impressed that he saved his notes from medical school what foresight 😀
