Swim Lesson Mapper

The Swim Lesson Access Mapper is a verification-first aquatic access and swim lesson directory designed to help communities, providers, policymakers, and families identify real, active swim lesson opportunities with confidence. Unlike website-only listings, the Mapper prioritizes direct verification, current program availability, provider legitimacy, and evidence-based capacity assessment to create a more accurate picture of where children can actually access swimming instruction. Built in support of California AB 1005 water safety goals, the platform combines public pools, schools, municipal programs, nonprofits, YMCAs, and private swim schools into a standardized, county-based system that highlights lesson availability, access gaps, scholarship opportunities, and confidence tiers for policy-grade planning and drowning prevention efforts.
