Please join the Hispanic Heritage Foundation and Every Town for the Anti-Gun Violence Charla session. Gun violence touches every town in America. So while gun violence is a national problem it is a particularly important issue to the Latino community as we are disproportionately impacted when compared to the nation as a whole.

The charla will highlight the stories of those who have been personally impacted by gun violence as well as offer ways that we can come together to end the violence.
