The
Student Pledge Against
Gun Violence is a national program
that honors the role that young people, through their own decisions,
can play in reducing gun violence. This campaign against youth
gun violence culminates each year on a Day of National Concern about
Young People and Gun Violence. The program provides a means for beginning
the conversation with young people about gun violence. It refers
teachers, counselors, and community leaders to valuable resources, includes
curriculum suggestions that can be integrated with existing academic
programs, and contains information about how your school can participate.
