The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. - Martin Luther King, Jr.

Build a local movement

We'll help you do it! NCGV local movements are simply members coming together to work for gun safety in their neighborhoods, their childrens' school, their workplaces, and their state. Invite your neighbors over for a "ASK: Keeping Children Safe" party and begin a movement in your own town. Or bring the message of Gun Violence Prevention materials and NCGV to your neighborhood with our easy to understand toolkit materials

Host an Event

Every holiday season NCGV host our annual "Peace Toys for War Toys" a day that allows children to swap their war toys (toy guns, etc) for creative and fun toys that don't encourage violence. We've created a step by step plan for the event : Toy Exchange How To. We also have a variety of other event suggestions or call us with your unique event ideas.

Contact Your Legislator

NCGV staff can only reach your legislators when they are at the capitol, but you live in the same area as them. Schedule a visit with your representative when they are in their local office. Bring a group or your family, let them know why the next generation deserves a safe society. For information on gun laws in North Carolina call us or check out the Brady Scorecard.
