Pool Safety Organizations & Initiatives
Pool Safely is a national public education campaign aimed at reducing childhood drownings, non-fatal submersion injuries and entrapments.
Led by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), the campaign was mandated by the U.S. Congress through the 2008 passage of the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (P&SS Act). The campaign conveys a key message: adding simple safety steps to take in and around the water can make all the difference. You never know which safety step will save a life--until it does. Pool Safely is a call-to-action for Americans to Take the Pledge and follow these simple steps to keep children safer in and around pools and spas. Take the Pledge to Pool Safely!
