NATIONAL GUN VIOLENCE SURVIVORS WEEK


JOIN US TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 1 – MONDAY, FEBRUARY 7 2022

Leer en español

Join us to honor the fourth annual National Gun Violence Survivors Week. During
the week, we take stock of the terrible human toll of America’s gun violence
crisis—and recommit ourselves to supporting survivors with action.

This week in February marks the approximate time that gun deaths in the United
States surpass the number of gun deaths experienced by peer countries in an
entire calendar year. Tragically and unacceptably, America’s gun death rate is
13 times greater than that of our peer countries and approximately 200 people
survive gunshot wounds every day in the U.S. The focus of National Gun Violence
Survivors Week is to share gun violence survivors’ stories and encourage allies
to amplify their voices. The centerpiece of the week are the stories on this
site, Moments That Survive, a digital storytelling platform in which Americans
across the country share defining details of their gun violence experiences, in
their own words.

Read and share some of these stories below or share your story.

WHY IT MATTERS

In February 2019, people in America first came together to mark the first-ever
National Gun Violence Survivors Week. Since then, National Gun Violence
Survivors Week has been marked annually by survivors, members of Congress,
mayors and other elected officials, partners, celebrities, athletes, and
thousands of Americans, who come together to collectively share and amplify the
stories and voices of gun violence survivors who live with the impact of gun
violence every day. 

There are countless stories behind every gun violence statistic—parents who
never got to kiss their kids goodbye, gunshot victims living with physical and
emotional wounds, and entire families heartbroken by gun suicide. By sharing
stories during this week and throughout the year, Moments that Survive
highlights the human toll of gun violence in America and lets survivors know
they are not alone – there is a community of people standing behind them.
