USA Swimming Disability Committee Mission Statement
USA Swimming encourages people with disabilities to participate in the sport of swimming and facilitates their inclusion in USA Swimming programs through education and collaboration.
We seek to involve people with disabilities in existing competitions and programs for all swimmers, rather than provide unique disability-only opportunities. Swimmers who prefer disability-only programs should consult the links menu in the “Get Involved” section below.

20 Question Tuesday: Jessica Long
Jessica Long was one of the brightest stars of the 2011 Pan Pacific Para-Swimming Championships in Canada, winning nine gold medals (including seven individual) and setting four world records. After taking a lot of learning experiences from Beijing, the one-time Russian orphan – whose trek to America is as inspiring as her work in the pool – talks about her focus for 2012, and what she wants to do most in London.
