Zero Gun Violence in West Laurel | Dover News
Description
Operation West Laurel, launched three years ago at Zion United Methodist Church, has achieved a stunning milestone: zero teen gun violence in their community. Co-founded by Amy Handy, the program provides a safe, valued space for youth while honoring those lost to gun violence—after three tragic deaths in 2024, 2025 and 2026 saw zero fatalities. Teens like Mahi Sturgis, who presented their success to Delaware’s Lieutenant Governor, say their involvement drives real change. With momentum building, the group aims to replicate this model across surrounding towns, proving that small, community-driven efforts can spark big, lasting impact.
