SG Sink Or Swim 

Gentle, Adaptive, and Joyful Pathways to Strength, Stamina, and Confidence in the Water   For swimmers with special needs — including autism, Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, sensory processing disorders, or intellectual disabilities — the pool is more than a place to exercise. It’s a sanctuary of support, where buoyancy eases movement, water provides calming sensory input, and every stroke builds not just physical endurance, but emotional resilience.
