First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a website called Family Safety Check-In that helps families with children decide how to store their firearms more safely. About 548 parents or guardians who have guns at home and currently store them unsafely will be randomly assigned to use the website or read a standard safety handout. The goal is to see if the tool leads to safer storage practices and reduces the chance of accidental injuries.
