USLA Encourages Everyone to Become Water Competent

• Water Safety USA, of which the USLA is a founding member, issued a recommendation in May 2018 to encourage every American to become water competent. Water competent means being able to anticipate, avoid, and survive common drowning situations, as well as being able to recognize and provide assistance to those in need. It includes water safety awareness, basic swimming skills, and helping others.
