LEADVILLE, CO, UNITED STATES, April 1, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The National Drowning Prevention Alliance (NDPA) Launches the Commitment to Safer Waters Seal Program, Recognizing Industry Partners and Leaders.

The National Drowning Prevention Alliance (NDPA) today announced the official launch of its Commitment to Safer Waters (CSW) Seal Program, a first-of-its-kind initiative designed to identify and recognize companies and organizations that demonstrate a clear, measurable, and ongoing dedication to water safety and drowning prevention.

The CSW Seal communicates to consumers, partners, and stakeholders that a company or organization actively integrates water safety into its culture, values, and operations. To qualify, organizations must demonstrate internal and external commitment, and if applicable, ensure their products meet nationally accepted certification standards and their services comply with industry-approved training and certification policies, as verified by third-party testing labs.

NDPA Executive Director Alissa Magrum stated, "Our Commitment to Safer Waters Seal is more than just a badge; it’s a public declaration that an organization is a true champion for water safety. We are proud to stand alongside our inaugural partners who are reinforcing industry best practices and leading the charge in protecting children and families from drowning and experiencing water related tragedies."

The NDPA is proud to announce the following companies and organizations as launch partners in the Commitment to Safer Waters Seal Program: A Safe Pool, D&D Technologies, Pentair Pool , SafeSplash Swim School, The Haggard Law Firm and Sears Pool Management Consultants.

A Safe Pool is the recipient of the Platinum Seal in the Removable Fencing category.

Jason and Tonja Howard, founders of A Safe Pool say, “At A Safe Pool, our mission is rooted in one belief: drowning is preventable when families are equipped with the right layers of protection and education. That’s why partnering with the National Drowning Prevention Alliance’s Commitment to Safer Waters Seal Program was such a natural fit for us. By participating in the Commitment to Safer Waters Seal Program, we are reinforcing our dedication to industry best practices and standing alongside other leaders who share our passion for preventing drowning and protecting children."

Chris Harkness, SafeSplash Swim School Brand President says, “Swimming is more than a skill, it’s a life-saving foundation. Being recognized with Platinum Seal by the National Drowning Prevention Alliance reinforces our commitment to teaching the skills that help keep families safer in and around the water. Through programs like our S.A.F.E.R. Swimmer Promise, a first-of-its-kind initiative supported by the NDPA, we’re focused on delivering meaningful progress and real safety outcomes for every swimmer.
