Join us on April 22nd at 6:30 PM for an important discussion on gun violence. The YWCA is dedicated to fostering safe communities where women and girls can thrive without fear. Despite the United States having the highest number of civilian-owned firearms globally, headlines and research consistently highlight gun violence as a significant threat to public health and safety. 

From school corridors to music festivals, nightclubs to households, and communities nationwide, women disproportionately endure alarming levels of gun violence, exposing them to heightened risks of harm and fatality. During our session, we will delve into the historical context of firearms in our nation, ongoing prevention efforts in Delaware, and the specific manifestations of this violence within our state. 

Your participation and insights are crucial as we strive to address this pressing issue and work towards creating safer environments for all. Mark your calendars and join us for this vital conversation.
