Be SMART Gun Safety

Secure firearm storage is an important part of keeping your family safe.
Firearms are now the leading cause of death among children in the United States. That’s why it’s more important than ever for parents and caregivers to know how secure firearm storage works. It’s simple. To help keep your family safe and prevent tragedies, it’s crucial to secure your firearm.

What is Be SMART?
The Be SMART campaign was launched in 2015 to promote responsible gun ownership in order to reduce child gun deaths. Whether you’re a gun owner, or you know someone who owns a gun, there is a role for everyone in the conversation around secure gun storage. Be SMART is a framework that parents, caretakers, and community leaders can follow to help keep their communities safe. Ultimately, you can help prevent kids from accessing firearms by storing them securely, and encouraging others to do the same. Because children deserve to feel safe, no matter where they are.

Secure – all guns in your home and vehicles.
(Palekana – nā pū āpau i kou home a me nā kaʻa)

Model – responsible behavior around guns.
(Ke kumu hoʻohālike – ka hana kuleana e pili ana i nā pū)

Ask – about the presence of unsecured guns in other homes.
(E nīnau – e pili ana i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā pū i hoʻopaʻa ʻole ʻia ma nā hale ʻē aʻe)

Recognize – the risks of teen suicide.
(Hoʻomaopopo – nā pilikia o ka pepehi kanaka ʻōpio)

Tell – your peers to be SMART.
(E haʻi – i kāu mau hoa i SMART)

For more information on what you can do to keep kids safe, visit www.besmartforkids.org.

No ka ‘ike hou aku e pili ana i ka mea e hiki ai ke hana i mea e palekana ai na keiki, e kipa
