Evolve USA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization[4] that advocates for gun safety. In contrast to many groups involved in gun politics in the United States, Evolve focuses on individual, voluntary actions to prevent accidental shootings.[5][6] It was founded in 2013, after the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting.[7]
