CeaseFirePA is a statewide coalition of survivors and citizens who are dedicated to taking a stand against gun violence
Each year in Pennsylvania nearly 1,200 people lose their lives to gun violence. Nearly half of those deaths are murders and virtually every single one of those murders is committed by a criminal using an illegal gun. Since the year 2000, 26 law enforcement officers have been shot and killed in the line of duty in Pennsylvania.
But despite those tragic numbers, little action has been taken at the state or national level to address the flow of illegal guns into our society. CeaseFirePA is a network of communities, survivors, and citizens who are dedicated to taking a stand against gun violence.
It is time to take a stand
Against criminals who terrorize our communities with illegal guns.
It is time to take a stand
Against the gun lobby which holds their own political agenda in higher regard than public safety.
It is time to take a stand
Against politicians who lack the conviction to support commonsense reforms to reduce gun violence.
At CeaseFirePA, we believe the first step to reducing gun violence is to begin a conversation about remedies to protect our neighborhoods. By uniting neighbors across communities, and communities across the state - we can send a clear message that it is time for action to reduce gun violence.
We are partnering with community groups, local officials, law enforcement, and individual citizens across Pennsylvania to build a coalition of real people who are taking a stand against gun violence. We supply the tools for local action and a channel to make people's voices heard in the halls of power.
