National Student Pledge

The Student Pledge Against Gun Violence is a national program that honors the role that young people, through their own decisions, can play in reducing gun violence. This campaign against youth gun violence culminates each year on the 3rd Wednesday in October, a Day of National Concern about Young People and Gun Violence.  The program provides a means for beginning the conversation with young people about gun violence.  It provides opportunity for student-led collaborations between students, teachers, counselors, and community leaders on effective ways to end gun violenice.

Since 1996, over 10 million students have signed the pledge!
