OUR MISSION
CEO, Trish P. Miller, learned to swim as an adult after her own near drowning experience as a teenager. That experience inspired her to be an advocate for community-based drowning prevention programs.
The SwemSchool offers lessons for students of all ages, from infancy to adulthood, and believes that anyone, at any age can benefit from swimming.
Our mission is simple: We guide each person’s journey towards the FREEDOM of swimming by addressing inequities,educating communities, and prioritizing safety.
Most drownings are preventable and it’s never too late to learn. Swimming is freedom.
