Water is all around us! It’s a part of our everyday lives and learning the water safety skill and taking can help can be life changing! Everyone who participates in aquatic activities needs to know how to recognize and respond to an aquatic emergency. African Americans, in particular, can benefit greatly from learning lifesaving water safety skills. These skills can increase your confidence and awareness in and around the water, ultimately saving lives. During this 1-hour workshop, Dr. Asherah Allen will teach American Red Cross water safety skills and techniques, that will include reaching assists, in-water assists and proper use of flotation devices. There will be great opportunities to work together to solve problems become safer in and around water.
