Too many people are excluded from access to aquatic settings. Whether it is because someone with sensory processing disorder is overstimulated or someone has a tendency to elope and is nonspeaking, being “invited” to leave a pool is not the answer. Some of the families All-Inclusive Aquatics work with report having been asked to leave up to 5 pools in Omaha because the facility did not feel their child had the ability to be safe. 

​

We asked ourselves...what can we do about this? We are a small business, we don't work in law enforcement or legislation. Our answer? We can shift the conversation by educating others and creating opportunities that are accessible and inclusive. So that's what we are did. We contacted the Mayor's office to inform them of our experiences and this inspired Mayor John Ewing to declare the third Sunday of May as an annual “Day of Commitment to Inclusive Water Safety!”
