The Issues
Gun Violence in Pennsylvania
In every part of the Commonwealth, people are losing their lives to gun violence. We breakdown this uniquely American catastrophe.
Community Violence
Gun violence is part of the fabric of daily life for too many Pennsylvanians. Everyone then struggles to thrive. Here’s why.
Firearm Suicide
Just 5% of suicide attempts are with a gun but they are so deadly it still accounts for the lives of 900 Pennsylvanians. The connection is clear.
Mass Shootings
PA schools, stores, malls and other public spaces were terrorized by 34 mass shootings in 2020–one every 10 days. Weak laws make them more likely.
Domestic Violence
Women are five times more likely to be killed by an abusive partner if the abuser has access to a gun. No one should live with that threat.
Be part of the movement.
Regardless of the obstacles and setbacks, together we can make sure everyone is safe.
Behind most gun deaths is a system that’s designed to be deadly
Our new project reveals – through the firsthand accounts of gun violence survivors – how gun deaths are the result of gaps in PA’s firearm safety system. Watch the stories of Pennsylvanians who have suffered loss because of our system that is Deadly by Design.
