Today is National Gun Violence Awareness Day. Domestic violence and gun violence are deeply interconnected. When abusers have access to firearms, the risk of victim homicide increases. The Violence Policy Center collects annual data on female homicides committed by men. According to the 2023 publication, When Men Murder Women, information about the weapon used was available in 41,677 homicides. More than half of the female victims were murdered with a firearm, with 61 percent of females murdered with a firearm being killed by an intimate partner. When access to firearms is limited and community members are educated on gun violence, community health, and safety increases. As part of this Gun Violence Awareness Day, MOCADSV staff participated in #WearOrange the help spread awareness about the need to address gun violence as a public health issue. #GunViolenceAwareness #GunViolenceDayofAction

Could it be? Allowing citizens to carry guns lowers crime. More 2A, less gun control (unless it's about how to hold your gun steady!) https://lnkd.in/gVbhne2S

Cooperation across lines of difference is a humanizing force — one that upends assumptions about the “other side” and can lead to creative, consensus based solutions to our toughest problems. PBS NewsHour covered the work of 11 Tennesseans who did just that, with the shared goal of meaningfully advancing gun safety while preserving the second amendment rights so many Americans cherish. More than 30,000 of their fellow Tennesseean citizens raised their hands to validate and support those solutions. We at Starts With Us are immensely proud to have played a role in creating the circumstances and pathways for Americans to rebuild this muscle through our #CitizenSolutions initiative. I like to shout out our work and our team here as much as anyone. But beyond that, there’s incredible power to scaling the visibility of this work. The power to re-establish what’s possible, and what we expect from our elected leaders, from each other, and from ourselves. PBS telling this story helps create the permission for others to follow suit. Our work is far from done in TN, and we’ll have more to share from other states on other issues. I hope you’ll follow along, join us, help us do the work and spread the word.
11 ideologically-diverse Tennesseans came together w/ solutions for gun rights and safety. PBS NewsHour w/ Judy Woodruff went to TN to tell their story. #CitizenSolutions are possible. Watch:

Laureus Sport for Good Foundation USA (Laureus USA) has been recognized by the Chicago Blackhawks, Chicago Bears, Chicago Bulls, Chicago Cubs, and Chicago White Sox through their Chicago Sports Alliance initiative to reduce gun violence. Funding will support Sport for Good Chicago, a coalition of more than 100 organizations working towards a Chicago where every young person has access to high quality, youth-centered sport programming in their neighborhood. In a city where perpetrators and victims of violence are getting younger and younger, we need additional investment into innovative violence prevention efforts that reach kids before it's too late. Sports-based youth development is perfectly positioned to interrupt this cycle of trauma and violence. Through sport, young people have the opportunity to make connections with friends and caring adults who help them build skills in support of their overall physical and mental well-being. Sport creates space for young people to experience empowerment, healing, and collective joy in the face of overwhelming stress and trauma. I'm reminded of an insightful conversation that I had with LaVonte Stewart, MPA nearly a decade ago. He told me that every kid needs community and will find it somewhere. The question is whether they will find it through a positive team (such as his Lost Boyz Inc program), or a harmful team (such as a street organization). The problem -- too many kids don't have that positive option available to them. Through this investment, Chicago Sports Alliance has made sure that more young people will have the opportunity to choose the positive team.
Together we stand against gun violence. Read more: https://bit.ly/3Vcn2oT
