Project ChildSafe, a program developed by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), has
distributed more than 37 million firearms safety kits across the country since 2003. The program is
supported by the firearms industry.
“We encourage residents to pick up a Project ChildSafe safety kit so that they can securely store their
firearm,” said Chief Chad Stewart. “Each kit contains a safety curriculum and
a cable-style gun lock. The locks fit on most types of handguns, rifles and shotguns. The goal is to
prevent a child or any other unauthorized person from accessing a firearms in your home.”
By partnering with Project ChildSafe, Eastern Pike Regional Police Department is participating in a national effort to promote
firearms safety education to all gun owners. Project ChildSafe distributes gun lock safety kits to all 50
states and the five U.S. territories.
“We are pleased to have the Eastern Pike Regional Police Department as a Project ChildSafe partner,” said Bill Brassard Jr.,
director of Project ChildSafe. “Project ChildSafe is an important step forward in helping ensure that all
firearm owners fully understand their responsibilities with respect to the safe handling and storage
of firearms.”
