1 YMCA Safety Around Water: A community Based Drowning Prevention Program Lindsay Mondick Lindsay is the Senior Manager of Aquatics for YMCA of the USA. In her role, she provides thought leadership and strategy to the growth and development of the aquatics program specialty area for the YMCA movement in the United States. Abstract We know that lasting personal and social change comes about when we all work together. That s why at the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Teaching children how to be safe around water is not a luxury; it is a necessity. The YMCA s Safety Around Water program was created to make sure children learn essential water safety skills, which can open up a world of possibilities for them to satisfy their curiosity safely. This session will provide details about how the YMCA has worked to develop a sustainable drowning prevention program across the country called Safety Around Water, and case studies on how community wide collaborations can bring change to high risk communities.
