Information for Firearms Ranges, Retailers, and Instructors
By recognizing the unique needs of firearm ranges, retailers, instructors, and other firearm industry sectors, AFSP is helping to connect firearms owners with life-saving information about suicide prevention and secure firearm storage.
Reaching Firearms Owners
It’s crucial that firearms owners are aware of safe storage practices and other elements of suicide prevention.
To help make suicide prevention education a basic component of firearms ownership, we’ve partnered with the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), the trade association for America's firearms industry, to help distribute materials to its national network of retailers and ranges.
By joining forces with NSSF, we are able to reach both firearms owners and sellers to inform and educate them about specific actions they can take to prevent suicide. Together, we are taking an unprecedented, large-scale step to reduce suicide by firearm and save as many lives as possible. By partnering with NSSF and remaining steadfast in our commitment to reach firearms owners with suicide prevention education, we have the potential to save thousands of lives.
