Our Philosophy
ICHV works to reduce the immense loss of life that comes from gun violence in our country. We need laws and policies enacted that effectively save lives. As the oldest and largest statewide organization in the country, ICHV is uniquely able to influence firearm policy and legislation that helps keep our communities safe from deadly gun violence. Through our programs we reach out to the most vulnerable population in our society, children, and empower them to be voices of change in their communities by spreading our philosophy.
