INVEST IN US
The INVEST IN US Coalition is comprised of national and local gun violence prevention organizations committed to building support to fund evidence-based community solutions to gun violence and educate leaders and the general public about proactive solutions to make our communities safer.
COALITION GOALS
Gun violence is a systemic public health issue, and addressing it requires systemic solutions.
Lawmakers must invest in proactive, community-led policy interventions and support proven methods to reduce violence.
Interrupting the cycle of community violence requires seeing gun violence as more than an individual problem, but as a threat to an entire community's health.
To end gun violence, we must also educate, and empower people to prevent interpersonal violence that can lead to gun violence, including intimate partner violence, sexual violence, racial and ethnic hate-based violence, and violence against LGBTQ people, particularly Black and other transgender women of color.
Our elected leaders must enact policies that refrain from constant over-policing, which drains funds from critical services, and leads to mass incarceration
