Dear friend,
The data is shocking: American children are 80% more likely to die before their 20th birthday than children in other wealthy nations.
A major cause of this mortality gap? Gun violence.
This isn't just a statistic — it's a public health emergency affecting 1.7 million Pennsylvania children returning to school this August. Dr. Christopher Forest's landmark Children's Hospital of Philadelphia study has identified firearms as the #1 threat to American children's health, surpassing car accidents, cancer, and all other causes of death.
Join us on August 15th to hear directly from Dr. Forest and other experts in a critical webinar. [[link removed]]

First Day Fears: How Gun Violence Became the #1 Health Threat to PA Children
Our expert panel features:
* Dr. Christopher Forest - Lead researcher on the groundbreaking CHOP study that has reframed gun violence as America's most urgent pediatric health crisis
* Abbey Clements - Co-Founder Teachers Unify and survivor of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting
* Wendy G. Coleman - President of AFT Pennsylvania
As parents pack backpacks and buy new shoes for the upcoming school year, they're also carrying an unspoken fear: Will my child come home safely at the end of the day?
While we've been sold ineffective "solutions" like metal detectors, bulletproof backpacks, and armed guards, the evidence shows gun safety policies like secure storage, extreme risk protection orders, and banning ghost guns actually save lives.

Together, we can ensure that kids can focus on learning, parents can focus on their kids and ultimately keep kids safe in and out of school.
I hope you can join us.
Thank you,
