Everyone Benefits When Community Leaders Work Together

Collaboration among community leaders is key when it comes to sharing the message about the importance of secure gun storage. Be SMART partners with organizations at the national, regional, and local levels to help spread the word. Since 2015, Be SMART has collaborated with educational organizations, medical associations, departments of health, law enforcement associations, and public safety coalitions. When leaders across communities come together to create a safer environment for young children and teens, the entire community stands to benefit. Because no one is truly safe unless our children are safe.
