This year, JLD Community Solutions invites you to join us for our Gun Violence Awareness Month Community Cookout & Candlelight Vigil on Saturday, June 6. We’ll have free food, music, games, community resources, firearm safety information, free gun locks while supplies last, our Memory Wall honoring loved ones impacted by gun violence, and a candlelight vigil.
We are also encouraging everyone to #WearOrange as a visible sign of remembrance, unity, and hope.
Before we gather in person, we invite you to tune in Friday, June 5 at 7 PM for a crucial conversation with my friend Ryan, a firearm instructor, about firearm safety, personal accountability, and what it means to “see something, say something, and do something.”
We still need volunteers to help make this event welcoming and meaningful. Vendors and community organizations are also welcome to join us this year at no cost.
