We teach the life skills that stop violence before it starts.
WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO WITH IT SUMMIT & FUNDRAISER
This is a Different Kind of School Safety Summit
Nearly 14 years after Sandy Hook, we’re still searching for solutions to school violence, and the growing mental health challenges facing our children.
This is not another traditional school safety conference. We’re gathering to explore what we can do BEFORE violence occurs.
18 expert speakers. Practical action for educators, parents, students and communities. You can be part of the solution.
GIVING TUESDAY
Jesse Lewis saved nine classmates before he was killed at Sandy Hook. Since, he has inspired millions to Choose Love. Giving Tuesday is December 1, 2026. Please honor Jesse’s legacy with a gift to help support our no-cost esential life skills programs.
OUR STORY
The Choose Love Movement is inspired by 6-year old Jesse Lewis, his final act of love, and his mother’s path of forgiveness after Jesse was killed in the Sandy Hook school shooting.
INSPIRING KEYNOTE
Inspire your community. Empower courageous choices. Help hope take root.
What does it take to turn unimaginable loss into a movement for hope?
After losing her son Jesse at Sandy Hook, Scarlett Lewis, founder, turned heartbreak into a mission of hope. Her keynote invites audiences to discover the power of Courage, Gratitude, Forgiveness, and Compassion-in-Action. Through her story and practical tools, Scarlett connects inspiration with everyday choices: responding to challenges, strengthening relationships, and creating communities where people feel safe, valued, and connected.
Give your audience inspiration they can put into action.
