🚨 FLORIDA FAMILIES: FREE SWIM LESSON VOUCHERS ARE BACK! πŸŠβ€β™€οΈπŸ’¦
Great news: Florida’s Swimming Lesson Voucher Program has re-opened applications β€” with expanded eligibility so more children can qualify for FREE swim lessons!

The program is now available to Florida families who meet these requirements:
πŸ’™ Children ages 1–7 at the time of application
πŸ’™ Florida residency
πŸ’™ Gross family income at or below 200% of the federal poverty guidelines
πŸ’™ Lessons must begin within 180 days after the voucher is issued

Applications are open now and vouchers will be awarded until available funding runs out, so eligible families should apply as soon as possible.

This year, we passed legislation to expand voucher funding and eligibility (SB 428) to save lives! Drowning remains the leading cause of unintentional death for Florida children ages 1–4. Swim lessons are an important layer of protection and can give our kids lifesaving skills around the water.

Remember, Florida all Medicaid beneficiaries are already eligible for child swim lesson coverage!

➑️ Learn more, apply, and find an approved swim lesson provider:
