One moment of despair can turn deadly if guns are accessible. The gold standard for secure gun storage is to keep all guns unloaded, locked, and stored separately from ammunition. #SuicidePreventionAwarenessMonth

Multiple factors can elevate the risk of suicide, and action must be taken to address the root causes. But one thing is clear: Reducing access to firearms can significantly reduce risk. Always store firearms unloaded, locked, and, where possible, separate from ammunition.

More recently, volunteers learned that the Wicomico County Health Department also received a grant of $30,000 for secure firearm storage—providing funds for secure storage supplies over the next year!

After forging a relationship with Dorchester County Health Department, our volunteers secured a $25,000 grant that will help purchase gun safes. Volunteers then distributed those safes and gun locks at our Wear Orange event, a library event, and other community events in Dorchester County.
