About this Event

What is Be SMART?

The Be SMART campaign was launched in 2015 to promote responsible gun ownership in order to reduce child gun deaths.

Whether you’re a gun owner, or you know someone who owns a gun, there is a role for everyone in the conversation around secure gun storage. Be SMART is a framework that parents, caretakers, and community leaders can follow to help keep their communities safe.

Ultimately, you can help prevent kids from accessing firearms by storing them securely and encouraging others to do the same. Because children deserve to feel safe, no matter where they are. In this class you will learn what it means to Be SMART




Here's how to Be SMART:

S - Secure all firearms in your home and vehicle

M - Model responsible behavior around firearms

A - Ask about the presence of firearms in other homes

R - Recognize the role of firearms in suicide

T - Tell your peers to be S-M-A-R-T





This is an educational class. Please do not bring any firearms to the class.
