DownloadAbout the Campaign
Ending Gun Violence and Domestic Violence is a campaign to raise awareness about the impact of gun fatalities and domestic violence in Black, Indigenous/Native, other communities of color, and rural communities. We hope to inspire conversations and empower survivors to effectively advocate for their safety through the legal and non-legal options that best fit their needs.
We aim to be a helpful resource for those who may be in contact with domestic violence survivors and their families, including social justice groups, first responders, medical staff, and other community organizations.
