Colorado Ceasefire is the longest-running grassroots gun violence prevention organization in the State of Colorado. We are parents, teachers, students, community members, gun violence survivors (and more) who have been working since 2000 to prevent and reduce gun violence in Colorado. We provide education, outreach, and legislative advocacy. Our work is making a difference.
