The safety of the children we serve is our top priority at Big Brothers Big Sisters. In the U.S., firearms are the second leading cause of death for children, and the first leading cause of death for Black children. Safe storage of firearms is one way to reduce the toll of these deaths. We’ve teamed up with Moms Demand Action to invite you to a 20 minute presentation on safe gun storage by BeSMART for Kids.
BeSMART for Kids, a free virtual program, provides facts, actions to take, and the opportunity to discuss and exchange ideas. Whether you’re a parent, or a Big who spends time with your Little in your home, this program can provide you with critical information to protect your family and guests.
We’re excited to offer three BeSMART for Kids programs throughout May. Courses are available on:
- Tuesday, May 11th at Noon
- Thursday, May 13th at 6PM
- Saturday, May 22nd at 11AM
Again, these discussions are free, and last only 20 minutes. No RSVP is required, just login if you can attend (see below).
If you are unable to attend, or want to learn more, we encourage you to visit the BeSMART website for more information on proper firearm storage to protect our youth.
Thank you for helping us keep kids safe!
