During Gun Violence Awareness Month, alarming data reveals that firearms remain the leading cause of death among children in Bexar County, Texas. In 2023, the county reported 23 fatalities due to gun violence, while statewide, unintentional shootings by children resulted in 14 deaths. A tragic case involves Arlene Alvarez, a 9-year-old killed in a case of mistaken identity, which has propelled her aunt, April Aguirre, into advocacy for gun safety reform and education.

This rising concern has sparked local initiatives like the Bexar Responsibly campaign, which encourages gun owners to secure firearms and educate families about safety. A recent survey indicates that 53% of respondents keep a loaded firearm accessible at home, while 69% rarely inform visitors with children about the presence of guns.
