Dear John,

Community Justice is hosting two important webinars alongside our partners, focusing on recent developments and effective strategies in our continued fight against gun violence.

U.S. v. Rahimi Virtual Discussion

🗓️: TOMORROW, July 1

⏰: 4 PM EST

📍: Online

Last week, the U.S. Supreme Court made a historic 8-1 ruling in U.S. v. Rahimi, prohibiting individuals subject to a protective order from possessing a firearm. This ruling reaffirms the rights of domestic violence survivors to live free from fear and harm, and is a MAJOR victory in our movement to end gun violence.

Join us with experts and advocates from Brady United Against Gun Violence and Texas Legal Aid for Survivors of Sexual Assault (LASSA) for a crucial discussion of the implications of the Rahimi decision for gun laws and domestic violence survivors both in Texas and nationwide.

Speakers include: 

Building Strong & Effective Youth and Community Violence 

Prevention Ecosystems in Public Health

🗓️: Monday, July 8

⏰: 3 PM EST

📍: Online

We’re kicking off our annual Week of Action with a crucial policy discussion with the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO), on public health approaches to gun violence prevention.

This webinar will delve into strategies aimed at reducing gun-related harm and fostering safer, more hopeful environments for all. Participants will hear best policy practices and strategies from frontline practitioners, advocates, and elected officials working at the county level to reduce violence, particularly in Black and brown communities.

Your attendance is more than just showing up; it's a powerful step towards building safer, more just communities. Together, we can turn our shared knowledge into meaningful action and lasting change. We look forward to seeing you there and continuing this critical conversation.

In community,

Team Community Justice
