The mission of the Fort Worth Drowning Prevention Coalition (FWDPC) is to prevent fatal and non-fatal drowning in north TX and beyond. We achieve this mission by equipping non-swimmers with life-saving skills as well as educating parents/caregivers on water safety education. As the founder and passion-driven leader of the FWDPC, the coalition has flourished as a grassroots, volunteer-driven community collaboration. Results under my guidance include:• 1459 non-swimmers now safer in and around water.• Increased accessibility to water safety & swim lessons in Fort Worth. Program ethnicity: 52% Hispanic, 28% African-American, 16% Caucasian, 2% Asian, 2% Other• 90% of students demonstrate comfort in the water by the conclusion of class. • 861 learn-to-swim scholarships awarded following successful completion of drowning prevention classes• 1460 life jackets distributed. 6-month post survey revealed 100% retention of PFDs and 90% of recipients had had reason to use the life jackets.• Parent/caregiver education to 6072 community members who have now become ambassadors for water safety within their own network of family & friends.• Drowning is a community problem requiring a community response. Our grassroots efforts to date have engaged 538 volunteers for a total of >9000 hours on deck and >2400 board hours.• 99.7% of volunteers reported in a post-survey the desire to volunteer in the future.• Roughly 1/3 of the volunteers we have trained are young adults who have learned life-long teaching skills and were seen as role models by young students.
