Event Fundraiser: Strides For Peace - 2019 Race Against Gun Violence
ICHV takes a proactive role in educating Illinois citizens about the negative impact gun violence has on communities across our state. We achieve our mission through public education and awareness programs, and by acting as an information source to community groups, activists, policymakers, the media, and other concerned citizens and organizations. Our many programs, such as our Student Voices Program, Student Leaders Program, Lincoln Awards event and more, help us deliver our message across the state and fulfill our mission to reduce gun violence.
We are a proud community partner of Strides for Peace, and look forward to this year's Race Against Gun Violence!

About The Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence
The Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence (ICHV) is the oldest and largest statewide organization in the U.S. working to prevent the devastation caused by firearms. Founded in 1975 by four suburban Chicago women concerned about the tragic consequences of handgun proliferation and availability, ICHV works on a variety of fronts to educate, raise public awareness, and build coalitions to enact change in laws and behavior.
