LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, Aug. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- “MetAlert, Inc. (OTC: MLRT) ("the Company"), renowned for its pioneering efforts in GPS wearable technology and its leadership in human and asset tracking and recovery systems, announced today the signing of a collaboration agreement with Walk the Talk America (“WTTA”), a Pro-2A non-profit bridging the gap between mental health and responsible firearm ownership. Additionally, MetAlert CEO, Patrick Bertagna will be speaking on the Innovations in Lethal Means and Firearms Safety panel at the Be the One Symposium hosted at the 105th American Legion National Convention in New Orleans August 23-29.

"I am incredibly excited about this collaboration. Not only will it bring us a valuable partnership that values responsible gun ownership, but it will also allow us to make a real impact in reducing the negative outcomes of firearms by combining the experience and expertise of our two organizations." Says Michael Sodini, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Walk the Talk America.

“It’s a great honor to be part of this community that dedicates resources, brain trust and technology to providing gun safety and responsible gun ownership solutions. We are very excited to collaborate with WTTA, engage stakeholders, and have the opportunity to speak on Firearm Safety, at the Be the One Symposium.” Stated MetAlert CEO Patrick Bertagna.

In 2021, The American Legion launched it’s Be The One platform with the goal of destigmatizing veterans asking for help, thereby creating an opportunity for those with mental health issues to speak freely and to seek out the support they need. It is OK to not be OK. The Be the One Symposium will feature panel discussions and other forums to dive deeper into the topic of mental health and suicide.

Created by gun owners with gun safety as a top priority, GunAlert provides technology that supports responsible gun ownership and helps prevent unnecessary firearm tragedies. GunAlert is a motion sensitive combination cable lock with GPS and cellular theft notification and recovery technology. The patented technology is sensitive enough to alert you as soon as your gun is moved, and through the GunAlert app (Android and iOS) you can securely view your gun’s exact location and monitor all unauthorized movements. GunAlert has strong support from the 2A community, Law Enforcement, and non-profits like The American Legion / Be the One and WTTA. Every two minutes a gun is stolen in the U.S. and approximately 132 people die every day from a firearm-related injury, so when seconds count, GunAlert can mean the difference between life and tragedy.

Patrick Bertagna, concluded with, "MetAlert's commitment to saving lives and enhancing safety through technological innovation remains unwavering and we look forward to making GunAlert an integral component to nationwide comprehensive gun safety solutions.
