JPMF Splash!
The nationally recognized JPMF Splash! is a water skills and safety program that teaches people with disabilities to “be safe and have fun in and around the water.” The program is based on five water safety rules developed specifically for individuals with disabilities. The curriculum, with its adaptable lesson plans, follows an established activity guide that revolves around these 5 important safety rules. Volunteer swim buddies provide individualized attention to the participants.
JPMF Splash! is a unique water safety program that touches many aspects of the participants’ lives. It promotes physical fitness, exposes them and their families to a life-long leisure activity, as well as, providing social interaction with non-disabled peers and community integration.
