SAFE Leadership Forum

If you are your SAFE Chapter’s Student Leader or Faculty Advisor, please register for this virtual event on Wednesday, August 12th for SAFE’s Inaugural Chapter Leader Forum.

If you are NOT part of a SAFE Chapter but would like to begin one, please register to attend as well!

We will spend an hour together to connect, support each other, and learn of inspiring new directions to lead your SAFE Chapter. There will be connection with SAFE National Leadership and with SAFE Chapters at medical schools across the country.

 Register for 8/12 Leadership Forum 

2026 & 2027 In-Person Curriculum Workshops

SAFE is working to empower healthcare providers to counsel patients at risk for firearm injury through improved education.

Now is the time to register for one of SAFE’s two upcoming, in-person, collaborative, curriculum-building workshops. There is no registration fee. Medical students can request support for paying for accommodations. Consider putting together a team of 1-3 from your institution and register for the workshop most convenient for your team.

By working together, we can develop an effective and culturally responsive curriculum that will equip future physicians to address the multifaceted but addressable issue of firearm injury and death.

Register by clicking the “register” buttons or by tapping on the QR code on either flyer.

Pass Medical Association Resolution in YOUR State

SAFE created a guide to make it easier for any SAFE Chapter or group of healthcare providers or students to begin the process of proposing and passing a resolution through a state medical association.

 See the Guide 

This guide is based on the experience of Texas A&M Naresh K. Vashisht College of Medicine’s SAFE chapter. They led a resolution to support firearm safety education in medical school and residency which was ultimately adopted by the Texas Medical Association at the TexMed 2026 Conference.

Inside the guide, click on the + symbol to expand the steps.

The full process took about six months and included multiple drafts, two rounds of formal feedback, student voting, and final approval with amendments at the conference.

This guide can be adapted to other state medical associations.
