I Am A Gun Safety Activist!: (Pocket Size) Coloring Book

I Am A Gun Safety Activist! is an educational tool via coloring book on empowering young people to know their representatives, understand they can contact them at any age, help them learn how to reach out and give them the tools to feel empowered to find their voice and begin engaging on important issues in all our communities. It is meant to educate a young audience on gun safety and actions a young activist can take to begin familiaring themselves with civic engagement and the movement to end gun violence.

My goal for this book is to foster a healthy discussion around gun violence prevention between caretakers, educators and children. The activity of coloring is not only stress and anxiety reducing and good for brain health but provides a helpful distraction from the seriousness and pressure that sometimes comes with addressing big issues with children. I highly encourage caretakers and children color alongside each other, as they discuss these big ideas and talk through the terms, actions, feelings and fears that may arise.

The Resources page in the back provides contact to valuable organizations for both getting involved, gun safety, keeping your home safe, suicide prevention and community programs available.
