Safe at Home & Safe at School: Pittsburgh Community Safety Forum

Safe at Home. Safe at School. Take worrying about shootings off your back-to-school list. Firearms are now the leading cause of death for children and teens in America, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics. As a new school year begins, every child deserves to feel safe not just in the classroom, but at home, too. Join CeaseFirePA, PA State Representative Lindsay Powell, Millvale Police Chief Tim Komoroski, and community partners for a free community forum on protecting children and preventing firearm tragedies at home and in school. Learn how secure firearm storage and other proven safety measures can help reduce the risk of school shootings, unintentional shootings, youth firearm suicide, and firearm theft. See secure storage options demonstrated and leave with practical steps you can take to help create safer homes, safer schools, and safer communities. Whether you own firearms or not, everyone has a role to play in creating safer homes and safer schools. You'll leave with practical information, free resources, and opportunities to take action to help protect Pennsylvania's children. RSVP today and invite other parents, caregivers, educators, and community members to join this important conversation.
