The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) launched a new interactive Gun Lock Distribution Map to help residents locate free firearm safety devices and connect community partners with safe storage resources. The tool identifies more than 150 locations statewide where individuals can obtain free cable-style gun locks.
Free gun locks, provided through a partnership with the Michigan State Police, are purchased through Project ChildSafe, a national program focused on promoting responsible firearm ownership.
Community organizations, health providers, local governments and other partners can request gun lock supplies by completing an online form. Approved sites will be added to the statewide map and receive supplies directly.
Members are encouraged to visit the MDHHS secure storage webpage and download “The Talk” flyer to learn more about safe storage practices and available resources.
Members with question may contact Lenise Freeman at the MHA.
