Mental health plays a crucial role in gun violence prevention. When untreated mental health conditions increase risk factors for violence, access to mental health care helps build safer communities. Prevention truly starts with support. #MentalHealthMatters #LiveFreeIllinois

#RogerFortson’s mother will have to spend Mother’s Day without her beloved son. His mom deserves answers to why he was so swiftly taken away from her! Demand answers for his needless death!
