What is Lock Arms for Life?

Our mission is to educate gun owners and community members about gun safety and practices and safe storage to save lives.

Based on a family tragedy, our founder Leesa Ross set out to change the narrative about firearms. She’s launched Lock Arms for Life, volunteers and experts dedicated to making gun ownership safer. Leesa lost her oldest son to a senseless handgun accident in 2009. Since then, she has been committed to finding a way to prevent gun accidents from injuring or killing unintended victims.

What Makes Lock Arms for Life Different?

Our call for change includes support for legal ownership of rifles and handguns. We want to end irresponsible and unsafe storage. The Lock Arms for Life initiative stresses that when not in use, firearms must be stored with practices that keep everyone safe — owners and non-owners alike.
