"the Drowning report"
tap llc & ndpa joins together to improve the collection of drowning data
Total Aquatic Programming and National Drowning Prevention Alliance Board of Directors have joined together to improve the "The Drowning Report" data. Please read future to learn more about the new process that is coming soon.
We have been collecting drowning data since 2008. This process involves about 1100-man hours per year plus cost for programs and support. Recently we have faced the following challenges:
- Some of the thousands of websites we visit for our report data have now started charging subscription fees. While these are only .99 cents a week they add up over the period of a year.
- Due to the number of sites, we use for information and reports, we have been exposed (multiple times) to viruses and have had to move to enterprise grade protection.
- Our users have requested many features that we were not able to offer before: custom reports, online searchability, ease of access and more.
It is time for TAP-LLC to update the way we collect and present data. This has a cost that we cannot totally absorb, and after talking to many users it is too important to just lose! We are moving to a subscription-based model. $99.95 per year will get you all the information you are used to plus:
- Report filtering options
- Custom reports (emailed on a customer set schedule)
- Ability to submit drownings (requires approval)
- Online and accessible 24/7 – no more waiting for the first of the month
- Enhanced field logic
- Alert notifications (new drownings in your area)
- Much, Much More!
- All this for less than $9 per month.

Story boards are a great way to keep children of all ages engaged in water safety education. This set of 6 boards take children through a water safety story and highlight ways to keep them safer.
Each board includes a full script, activity and talking points for the presenter. A must-have for all educators and swim schools to include in their community outreach programs and water safety presentations.
