On June 6th, Crowell hosted Former CPSC Chair Ann Brown and Former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords as they headlined a roundtable on the importance and impact of gun locks. This joint appearance spotlighted child safety and firearms as part of Gun Violence Awareness Month. Eighty percent of unintentional shootings in the United States are the result of children playing with unsecured firearms. Too often, these tragedies occur because guns were not properly locked away. In 2024, the Honorable Ann Brown, donated $100,000 to Safe Kids Worldwide to help fix this issue. Brown and Giffords were joined by Leesa Ross, Founder and Director of Lock Arms for Life and Torine Creppy, President of Safe Kids Worldwide to discuss the impact of this donation as well as additional strategies to stop children from accessing firearms.
