Since 2020, firearm injury has been the leading cause of death for children and adolescents aged 1 to 19 years in the United States.
Every day in the United States, over 300 individuals are injured or killed by firearms.
In the United States, Black men aged 20 to 24 years are about 22 times more likely to die by firearm homicide than non-Hispanic white men of the same age due to systemic racism.
