4th Annual Emergency Gun Violence Summit

August 19, 2026

By Tracy Abler, Justice Coordinator

Milwaukee’s Forward Latino/80-percent Coalition invites you to join their 4th Annual Emergency Gun Violence Summit this fall. This is Wisconsin’s largest gun violence prevention event, which aims to bring communities together to address gun violence and advance meaningful solutions.

This year’s theme is “Uniting Voice, Advancing Solutions, Healing Community & Saving Lives.” Mark your calendars for Tuesday, October 13, 2026, 8 am - 4 pm. The summit will take place at the Baird Center, Milwaukee, WI.

Participants will hear from nationally recognized gun violence prevention experts, policymakers, advocates, and survivors as they share insights, experiences, and strategies for creating safer communities. General admission is free, but you can register for the luncheon.

CSA continues to be a co-sponsor of this event and currently has five tickets available for the luncheon. Please email Tracy at tabler@csasisters.org if you and/or a friend or colleague would like to attend the summit and enjoy this complimentary lunch.
