Ask if there’s a gun in the home
More than 2,500 children and teens are shot unintentionally each year, mostly in the home. Ask if there’s an unsecured firearm in the house before sending your child to play.

Here are ways you can be safe.
Have guns removed from someone at risk of imminent harm to self or others
If you know someone with access to firearms who may be at imminent risk of harming himself or others, call your local police station, or the state police, and ask them to initiate a “risk warrant” investigation. Anyone can call, you don’t need to be a family member.
