The Be SMART campaign was launched to raise awareness that secure gun storage—storing guns unloaded, locked, and separate from ammunition—can save children’s lives. Be SMART emphasizes that it’s an adult responsibility to keep kids from accessing guns, and that every adult can play a role in keeping kids and communities safer.

There are thousands of Be SMART volunteers in your communities and neighborhoods who are delivering the Be SMART message across the country in all 50 states.
