Designed with the modern world in mind, the ActiveResponse™ Personal Safety Alarm is a compact and user-friendly device that offers unparalleled peace of mind, whether at home, in transit or on the go. 

When you find yourself in the presence of danger or become lost, pull the pin for a loud 110 decibel siren and/or push the button to alert your nominated personal contact. With the addition of an ActiveResponse™ plan, activating the siren or pressing the button can, via Bluetooth and your phone, alert up to five nominated personal contacts and/or Swann’s monitoring center and local police with an SMS that includes your GPS location.. 

Carry in your hand, pocket or bag, wear as a necklace or attach to a keyring, handbag, school bag, backpack and more. With sturdy construction and long battery life, it’s perfect for walks, runs, hiking or day-to-day travel and has the power to potentially save your life.

Key features of the Swann ActiveResponse™ Personal Alarm include:

  • Pairs to your phone & the Swann Security app via Bluetooth, connecting family & friends with emergency services.
  • Easy to Use: Activate a Loud 110 DB Siren by pulling emergency pin to scare would-be perpetrators away and alert those around you that you are in distress.
  • Long Battery Life from 1x CR2 Battery (included).
  • Lock & Unlock When Needed: There’s a screw lock to deactivate the Alarm when you know you’re safe. You can easily turn it back on when you’re going out.
  • Discreet, Lightweight & Stylish Design: making it easy to carry around in your keyring, pocket or bag. Compact, stylish and lightweight aluminum case. Available in attractive Aqua and Black finishes.  
  • SMS Alerts to Emergency Contacts: Your Primary Emergency Contact will receive an alert (including the location) if you have activated an alarm.
  • Subscribe for Greater Security: Becoming a member allows you to nominate up to five personal emergency contacts. Plus, pressing the button or activating the siren sends an instant message (via Bluetooth on your phone) to Swann’s professional monitoring center and, if necessary, local police.
  • Travel Compatible: Carry wherever you go including domestic air travel, as the Alarm can be taken through security screening at airports and is allowed to be carried onto planes, where pepper sprays and tasers aren’t. Once you touch down, the included accessories give you options on whether you carry, wear or clip it.

New Children’s Picture Book Addresses Bullying, Body Image, Weight-Shaming and Self-Esteem, Opening Opportunities for Important Conversations Between Kids and Adults

'Chubby the Bear’s Big Choice,' by Author Daryl R. McCullough and Illustrated by Maryanne Smith, Sets Its Story Among the Enchanting California Redwoods, Where a Young Bear Fends Off Bullies and Self-Doubt and Regains Self-Esteem and Acceptance

New Children’s Picture Book Addresses Bullying, Body Image, Weight-Shaming and Self-Esteem, Opening Opportunities for Important Conversations Between Kids and Adults
'Chubby the Bear's Big Choice'

Author Daryl R. McCullough?s second book, 'Chubby the Bear?s Big Choice,' is set in a California redwood forest and tells the story of a sensitive, young bear struggling with bullies and his self-esteem issues.

Author Daryl R. McCullough’s second book, “Chubby the Bear’s Big Choice,” is set in a California redwood forest and tells the story of a sensitive, young bear struggling with bullies and self-esteem issues. This tender new book offers children, parents, and others of all ages an engaging story with several timely lessons on bullying, body image, weight-shaming, and self-esteem to be shared and discussed. Parents and children’s therapists have already heralded the book as an essential tool on the subject matter. Order now at Amazon, Barnes & NobleTarget or Archway Publishing.

Chubby is a fitting follow-up to McCullough’s award-winning first book “The Story of Tree and Cloud” — 1st Place, Pen Craft Awards; Finalist/5-Stars, “Reader’s Choice Book Awards”; 1st Place, “Firebird Awards”; and 3rd Place, “Best Children’s Book" and "Best Illustrated & Picture Book," Spring 2022, Outstanding Creator Awards. “Tree and Cloud” is a story about loss and managing grief, also set among California’s natural beauty, starring a California live oak tree named Folie and her new friend Puddle. “Chubby the Bear’s Big Choice” is similarly illustrated — not as a cartoon, but in a pure and naturalist style — by McCullough’s 80-year-old aunt Maryanne Smith, an acclaimed nature artist from Pennsylvania. 

“I grew up a chubby child who was bullied and weight-shamed by my peers and even by teachers and staff in grade school,” McCullough said. “I hope that by sharing this story, any child who might be dealing with these issues and feelings can find the strength to talk about it with their parents and learn self-care. 

“Of course, I also hope the story might thwart a bully or two, providing a teachable moment for them that our individuality is powerful, and compassion is paramount in any friendship,” McCullough said.

The story follows its hero, Chubby, a sensitive young bear cub with a rare talent for befriending honeybees and perhaps enjoying too much of their honey. Bullied by other bear cubs in the forest, Chubby finds solace by retreating up in the air, high in the branches of the redwood trees. One day, Chubby’s mood gets lifted by his forest friends — a sweet raccoon and a wise beaver — and Chubby embarks on a journey to reclaim his self-esteem, choosing to teach the other cubs a lesson along the way. Ultimately, Chubby takes the high road and shows others he is emotionally mature enough to stand up for himself while showcasing his strengths in a thrilling culmination of the tale, which ends happily for all.

Available now, the book invites readers of all ages to embark on a powerful journey of self-discovery and empathy and helps foster essential conversations and empower the next generation. 

“This magical story touched my heart and reminded me how, as a mother of two fabulous daughters, I always had my eye on bullying, particularly when it came to body shaming. Bullies teach us all how not to behave! Conversely, I taught my girls that staying connected with their bodies and loving and sharing their unique gifts with others were some of the healthiest ways to care for themselves and live fulfilled lives. Life is indeed a gift, so like Chubby, let’s all choose love, acceptance, and kindness!” — Melora Hardin, Emmy-nominated star (“The Office,” “Transparent,” “Dancing with the Stars,” “Monk”)
