March for Change

Cynthia Dartley, Neighbor

More must be done to keep our children safe.  MARCH FOR CHANGE is providing a platform for people to rally in Hartford on February 14th demanding safer gun laws in the state of CT.  Since the Newtown tragedy there has been a groundswell of support for this movement.


We are not looking to ban guns, we are simply looking to enact laws that will make gun ownership in New Haven County and CT safer for our children.The analogy being made to our group is that of the MADD model; it took a vocal group of angry and energized moms, demanding change in the drinking/driving laws to get the concept of a "designated driver" into the vernacular.  We believe we can change the conversation, change the culture, change the laws.
