In any crisis, time is precious. Those in crisis need time to think things over, to seek professional support, and to heal. But bullets move faster than people can heal. When a loved one is saying or doing things that suggest they intend to harm themselves or others, having access to a gun can create a dangerous situation.
Extreme risk laws currently exist in 21 states and Washington D.C. In Illinois, these civil orders – known as Firearm Restraining Orders (FROs) – temporarily prevent someone in crisis from purchasing or possessing firearms. By doing so, they can pause a potentially deadly situation and give someone the time they need to heal.
