USRowing & SafeSport
In October of 2013, USRowing adopted SafeSport policies aimed at eliminating any forms of sexual misconduct, emotional misconduct, physical misconduct, bullying, harassment and hazing in our sport.
USRowing’s program is designed to assure athlete safety at our team camps and our sanctioned events, as well as in our member clubs and any affiliated organization, by promoting and enforcing policies and programs that address: bullying, hazing, harassment (including sexual harassment), emotional misconduct, physical misconduct and sexual misconduct (including child sexual abuse and/or grooming behaviors).
USRowing is dedicated to ensuring the safety of its members and member organizations. For more information about how USRowing implements SafeSport policies, please visit their website.
