USA Swimming Safe Sport
USA Swimming is committed to providing a healthy and positive environment free from abuse for all its members. USA Swimming’s Safe Sport program, a comprehensive abuse prevention program, consists of a multi-layered approach to keep kids safe, including: required policies and best practice guidelines; mandatory screening, including criminal background checks and employment screening; training and education; monitoring, supervision and mandatory reporting. These measures are informed by experts in the field of child safety and are among the strongest safeguards found in youth-serving organizations. (USA swimming website)
As part of our club's membership with USA Swimming we follow USA swimming's Safe Sport guidelines. As part of this initiative, there are a few policies that we must have in place to help keep our swimmers safe:
- Minor Athlete Abuse Prevention Policy (MAAPP)
- Bullying Action Plan
- USA swimming code of conduct
- SafeSport Best practices
