This year's Pool Safely Summer 2019 Partner Toolkit has been released.
Each year, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission releases this packet of materials for organizations to use in their drives to promote swimming safety. It does this through its Pool Safely campaign, which began from the agency's charge to promote pool safety, as required in the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act.
Materials in the Toolkit can be downloaded from the site. They Include social-media-ready images, campaign messages and new statistics, including CPSC's most recent child drowning and entrapment data, which businesses and organizations can use in promoting safety. Users also will find sample media posts in both English and Spanish, which may be used verbatim or reworked. Some of these posts promote CPSC's Pool Safety Pledge, which it encourages adults and children to take every year.
