"The second is auto accidents and the third is cancer, but the number one is gun violence and we have an obligation and a responsibility to talk about it," Northwell CEO Michael Dowling said. The campaign aims to try to end the stigma around talking about unlocked guns in homes. Only 30% of gun owners with children at home store their firearms safely, according to Northwell Health.
Gaelle Clesca said she loves the commercial. She is a pediatric nurse at Northwell Health who has treated kids who have been shot."As a nurse, as a mom, as a public health servant, I started questioning what can I do to make things better, which is why I'm excited about this opportunity to raise awareness," Clesca said.
