PUBLIC EDUCATION AND PUBLIC HEALTH PROMOTION PROGRAMS:END FAMILY FIRE:EDUCATING AND INFORMING THE AMERICAN PUBLIC ABOUT THE DANGERS POSED BY LOADED, UNLOCKED GUNS IN THE HOME THROUGH OUR END FAMILY FIRE CAMPAIGN, A COORDINATED MARKETING CAMPAIGN CONDUCTED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE AD COUNCIL, AND SUPPORTED BY WORLD-CLASS LEADERS IN CONTENT DEVELOPMENT, END FAMILY FIRE MESSAGING AND DELIVERY FOCUSES ON SAFE STORAGE OPTIONS AND SUPPORTS RESPONSIBLE AMERICAN GUN OWNERSHIP. CAMPAIGN MESSAGING FOCUSED INITIALLY ON THE UNINTENTIONAL SHOOTING OF EIGHT CHILDREN A DAY AND HAS SINCE SHIFTED TO INCLUDE THE 64 LIVES LOST ON AVERAGE EVERY DAY TO GUN SUICIDE, SPECIFICALLY AMONGST THE VETERAN COMMUNITY. BRADY ALSO WORKS WITH A RANGE OF MEDICAL AND SOCIAL SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS TO ADVANCE THE MESSAGE OF END FAMILY FIRE AND ENSURE THAT PARENTS, CHILDREN, AND CAREGIVERS UNDERSTAND THE DANGERS OF UNSECURED GUNS IN THE HOME.A CORNERSTONE OF OUR END FAMILY FIRE CAMPAIGN, ASKING SAVES KIDS (ASK), IS AMPLIFIED BY THE AMERICAN ACADEMY OF PEDIATRICS, THE NATIONAL PTA, AND A RANGE OF MEDICAL AND SOCIAL SERVICE ORGANIZATIONS TO ENSURE THAT PARENTS, CHILDREN AND CAREGIVERS UNDERSTAND THE DANGERS OF UNSECURED GUNS IN THE HOME AND THE SIMPLE STEPS THAT CAN BE TAKEN TO STOP THE PREVENTABLE TRAGEDIES OF "FAMILY FIRE" THAT HAPPEN EVERY DAY.RED, BLUE, AND BRADY PODCAST:RED, BLUE, AND BRADY EXAMINES CURRENT EVENTS AND SHARES PERSONAL NARRATIVES IN ITS EXPLORATION OF AMERICA'S EPIDEMIC OF FIREARM INJURIES AND DEATHS HAS BEEN INSTRUMENTAL IN INSTRUCTING THE GENERAL PUBLIC ABOUT THE ROOTS AND SOLUTIONS OF GUN VIOLENCE IN OUR COUNTRY.

LEGAL ENFORCEMENT:OUR LEGAL TEAM HAS LED THE GUN VIOLENCE PREVENTION MOVEMENT IN LANDMARK VICTORIES ON BEHALF OF GUN VIOLENCE VICTIMS FOR MORE THAN THIRTY YEARS REPRESENTING FAMILIES OF SLAIN CHILDREN, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS, POLICE OFFICERS SHOT IN THE LINE OF DUTY, ENTIRE COMMUNITIES, AND MANY OTHER PLAINTIFFS. THROUGH LITIGATION, WE CHALLENGE LAWS THAT PUT AMERICANS AT GREATER RISK, AND WE TARGET SOURCES OF CRIME GUNS BY SUING GUN DEALERS WHO DON'T FOLLOW THE LAW AND ESTABLISHED BEST PRACTICES WHEN SELLING GUNS. ADDITIONALLY, BRADY'S LEGAL TEAM STEPS IN WHEN THE AMERICAN PUBLIC'S SAFETY IS THREATENED AS A WHOLE, SUCH AS THE THREAT OF WIDESPREAD CREATION OF 3D PRINTED GUNS, GHOST GUNS, AND OTHER EMERGING, AND AS YET UNIDENTIFIED, DANGERS TO THE PUBLIC.CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE:BRADY'S COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE AIMS TO REDUCE GUN VIOLENCE IN IMPACTED COMMUNITIES BY STEMMING THE FLOW OF CRIME GUNS INTO THOSE COMMUNITIES, FREQUENTLY FROM DEALERS OUTSIDE THEIR CITY OR EVEN THEIR OWN STATE. THE BURDEN OF ENDING GUN VIOLENCE SHOULD NOT REST SOLELY ON THE COMMUNITIES MOST IMPACTED. A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH TO ENDING GUN VIOLENCE ADDRESSES THE SUPPLY SIDE, SPECIFICALLY THE GUN INDUSTRY AND THE MINORITY OF IRRESPONSIBLE DEALERS WHO ARE CONTRIBUTING TO AND PROFITING FROM GUN VIOLENCE. THE COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE RELIES ON A THREE-PRONGED STRATEGY OF EDUCATION, IDENTIFICATION, AND REFORM TO SHIFT FOCUS ON THE UPSTREAM SOURCE OF CRIME GUNS, RATHER THAN THE INDIVIDUALS THAT PERPETRATE CRIME. THE COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE ENGAGES WITH COMMUNITIES ON EACH OF THESE PRONGS IN ORDER TO BRING SUPPLY-SIDE SOLUTIONS TO THEIR CITIES AND STATES. AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL, THE COMBATING CRIME GUNS INITIATIVE PURSUES EFFORTS FOR INCREASED DATA TRANSPARENCY ABOUT THE SOURCES AND PATHS OF TRAFFICKED FIREARMS AND GOVERNMENT OVERSIGHT OF THE FIREARMS INDUSTRY, AS WELL AS PURSUING PROGRAMS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT AND PRIVATE SECTOR COMPANIES AIMED TO REDUCE THE FLOW OF TRAFFICKED FIREARMS INTO IMPACTED COMMUNITIES.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
