What is Safe Sport?
USA Swimming is committed to fostering a fun, healthy, and safe environment for its members. Therefore, they have created a Safe Sport program and implemented a detailed Code of Conduct. Safe Sport also provides policies, education, a reporting structure, and tools to serve all members as we work together to maintain this environment.
