Keep your firearm safe. Keep our vets safe.
We’re proud to support veterans, which is why Simtek has partnered with Stop Soldier Suicide to create the VET-SAFE initiative to help prevent veteran suicide. The StealthALERT sensor helps veterans maintain access to their firearms, secure their 2nd Amendment right, notify their support network when a firearm is accessed, enable timely check-ins and potentially save lives in moments of crisis.
WHY IT MATTERS
We lose 4x as many service members to suicide than we do to combat
74% of veteran suicides in the U.S. involve a firearm
36% of veterans take less than 5 minutes to act
