Jerry Adams Aquatics Resilience Program (JAAR Program) is a nonprofit that teaches specialized, developmentally appropriate swim lessons to children with disabilities, children with mental illnesses, children in the foster care system, and the parents or guardians of youth in those groups.

At JAAR Program, we are aware that extracurricular activities are limited for neurodiverse children. We also know it can be hard to transition back to school from a psychiatric stay or “fit in” when your home life isn't stable. We want to provide a safe outlet for the people in need in our community. By teaching children how to swim and forming a team for those inspired by lessons, we will create a love of sport in the hearts of many while teaching hundreds of people how to be water-safe.
