One reason we created #SafeGunLock was for #SuicidePrevention. Removing access to firearms from vulnerable members of a household can mean the difference between life and death. #FirearmSuicidePreventionDay #GunSafety
Today, we’re commemorating the 4th annual #FirearmSuicidePreventionDay.

We lose 74 people to gun suicide every day in the U.S. By talking about gun suicide and practicing safe firearm storage, we can prevent these tragedies.
