This is a first-of-its-kind center, one that brings social science approaches to the gun debate to forge an inclusive, post-partisan forum for those across the political spectrum to engage, learn and elevate. With millions of Americans owning and carrying guns largely for self-defense while U.S. gun violence surges to alarming levels, now is the time to think across political divides and unearth new perspectives and new possibilities for better conversation and civic engagement. Private support for this fund will help start a different kind of dialogue that puts the power to set the terms of the gun debate back where it belongs: in the hands of the people.
I believe ASU is a major life force in our community and I want to do my part to help it thrive."
