USCCA Launches New Firearms Safety Curriculum

West Bend, WI –​ The U.S. Concealed Carry Association (USCCA), the country’s largest, fastest-growing self-defense association dedicated to responsible gun owners, has launched its newest firearms safety course, Children’s Firearms and Safety Fundamentals. This educator-created curriculum equips families with the knowledge to effectively teach children about firearms safety.

Continuing their commitment to teaching all Americans how to avoid danger, save lives and keep their loved ones safe, the USCCA’s Children’s Firearms and Safety Fundamentals curriculum was designed by experts for all families, not only those with firearms in their homes. This curriculum provides comprehensive safety lessons in four key ways:

  1. The Children’s Firearm and Safety Fundementals Book: a comprehensive guide featuring the knowledge, tools and resources required to educate children on firearm safety. 
  2. The Fundemental Safety Lecture: a 2-3 hour class that can be taught to any parent or adult looking for expert insight on firearms saftey for their family.
  3. The Family-Focused Safety Series: a nine-module online learning program For Families that want to be more knowledgeable, skilled, and responsible regarding firearm ownership.
  4. USCCA Official Partner Children’s Safety Day Camp: A half-day, Community based event that enables parents and children to participate in and discuss firearm safety, and training. 

“It is more important than ever that we provide families with the resources to safely and responsibly educate their children on firearms safety rather than isolate them from the issue. As a Mom of three, I know how it feels to be responsible for this important conversation,” said Tonnie Schmidt, USCCA Co-Founder. “As parents, we discuss safety topics with our children all the time — fire safety, water safety, stranger safety. Firearms safety should be no different.”

Authored by Beth Alcazar, a leading firearms expert and former academic educator, the curriculum teaches universal safety rules, firearm fundamentals and how to make gun safety a family responsibility.
