Standing in Solidarity Against Gun Violence: Deemed a public health problem, gun-related mortality and injury rates remain high across the country.Firearm injuries are among the five leading causes of death for people between the ages of 1 and 44 years old, per the CDC, with more than 48,000 firearm-related deaths reported. That’s about 132 people who lose their lives each day due to firearm-related injuries.
So, this National Gun Violence Awareness Day, also referred to as National Wear Orange Day, South Texas Health System employees, including members of STHS McAllen’s Level 1 Trauma Center, donned orange attire to stand in solidarity against gun violence, honor the victims of gun violence and promote the importance of gun safety.
While gun violence has become more prevalent over the past few decades, it’s important to know that gun violence is preventable through mental health support and community-based violence prevention programs, as well as by addressing the root causes of violence.
Together, we can build a future free from gun violence.
