Programs: Given that the gun violence crisis has multiple fronts, Everytown Support Fund takes a holistic and multifaceted approach to change the culture of gun safety in America: -Everytown Law is the largest and most experienced team of litigators in the country dedicated to advancing gun safety in the courts and through the civil and criminal justice systems. Everytown Law has won major victories in cases against firearms manufacturers, distributors, and retailers in courts across the country, including securing multiple multi-million-dollar settlements for Everytown Law clients. The team has also successfully defended many state and local gun safety laws against Second Amendment and preemption challenges. -Everytown Research & Policy conducts independent, methodologically rigorous research, supports evidence-based policies, and communicates this knowledge to the public. All of our reports can be found at https://everytownresearch.org/. -Everytown Implementation Center builds on Everytown’s legal, research and advocacy expertise to help states and localities develop comprehensive plans to ensure effective implementation of gun safety laws. Enacting strong gun laws is only the beginning of our work to protect all communities from gun violence and focusing on implementation of these laws will help realize their full potential to save lives. -Everytown's Be SMART campaign promotes responsible gun ownership in order to reduce child gun deaths. Our One Thing You Can Do campaign builds awareness on how to use extreme risk protection orders—which temporarily remove guns from the situation and help keep your loved one safe. The Wear Orange campaign asks anyone in America who wants to save lives from gun violence to do one simple thing on National Gun Violence Awareness Day: Wear Orange. -The Everytown Community Safety Fund supports organizations implementing community-based violence intervention (CVI) programs operating in cities nationwide as a core component of a comprehensive approach to reducing gun violence in America. We deliver resources to help community-based violence intervention organizations sustain and scale their essential, lifesaving work via direct investment through grants, capacity-building training, peer convenings and advocacy campaigns. -The Everytown Survivor Network is a nationwide community of survivors working together to end gun violence. The Survivor Network connects survivors to each other, amplifies the power of survivor voices, offers trauma-informed programs, provides information on direct services, and supports survivors who choose to become advocates.
