USMS Statement on AAPI Hate Crimes

The Asian American and Pacific Islander communities have experienced a rise in hate crimes committed against them over the past year. This tragic problem emphasizes changes we need across our country. Hate and bigotry have no place within U.S. Masters Swimming or anywhere else, and we stand with the AAPI community, including our members, coaches, officials, volunteers, and staff. We will continue to ensure that all people are welcome in our organization and celebrate the diversity of our membership.

If you have any suggestions for us or want to get involved with our diversity and inclusion efforts, contact us at membership@usmastersswimming.org.
