In honor of this partnership, OVP will host The OVP Kickback each month in priority neighborhoods around the City of St. Louis. These free events, in addition to featuring food, music, and entertainment, will also provide residents with free gun safety resources and more information about secure gun storage. The event’s lead sponsor is OVP, other organizations attend and offer resources and services to the community. #OVPKickback
