ADVOCACY and EDUCATION to reduce gun violence
new yorkers against gun violence
NYAGV’s advocacy arm pursues laws and policies to reduce gun violence at the state, local and federal level, engaging youth activists in our lobbying efforts. We have been instrumental in passing New York’s strongest gun laws, keeping our state at the forefront of legislative solutions to gun violence.

NYAGV Education Fund works in schools and communities to educate New Yorkers about the root causes and impact of gun violence, as well as holistic solutions to the problem. Our signature in-school program, ReACTION, is one of our many programs educating and empowering students disproportionately affected by gun violence to become leaders in the fight for safe and just communities.
