It’s an honor to stand alongside of Moms Demand It’s an honor to stand alongside of Moms Demand Action - FL in support of SMART gun ownership so that together, we can prevent children and teens from having access to a firearm that unintentionally harms them or someone else. 

🔔 The Alachua County Commission has proclaimed Aug. 25–29 as Be SMART Week!

Firearms are the leading cause of death for children and teens in the U.S., and almost every day, a child gains access to a firearm and unintentionally harms themselves or someone else.

More than half of gun owners don’t securely lock their firearms — leaving 4.6 million children in the U.S. living in homes with at least one unlocked, loaded gun. We can all play a role in changing that.

The good news is that secure firearm storage saves lives!

Be SMART is a reminder for us all:
🔒 S – Secure all guns
👨‍👩‍👧 M – Model responsible behavior
❓ A – Ask about unsecured guns in other homes
💚 R – Recognize the role of guns in suicide
📢 T – Tell your peers to Be SMART
Paws up for our K9 heroes! Today on National Dog Paws up for our K9 heroes! 

Today on National Dog Day, we’re celebrating the four-legged members of our team who work tirelessly to serve and protect alongside their handlers!

From tracking suspects to detecting narcotics and keeping our community safe, these canines are more than just adorable—they're highly trained, loyal, and vital to our mission.

Thank you to our K9s for your service and loyalty 🐶
