speaks at our Meeting on September 4, 2019
Cape Cod Synagogue, 145 Winter Street, Hyannis, MA, September 4, 10:30 am

Join us for
"Talk Saves Lives: an Introduction to
Suicide Prevention for Firearm Owners"

Anyone who is active in the gun violence prevention space knows the lethality of a firearm which is not safely stored. Each year many "unintentional" shootings as well as suicides occur simply because the weapon was available. Gun violence prevention groups across the nation have addressed this concern with many campaigns such as Be Smart, Family Fire, and Grandmothers' own Lock It Up.

Bring your questions and thoughts on the topic as we are sure it will be a lively and timely discussion.
