What began as one man’s mission has transformed into a worldwide organization. To date, ISR has well over 800 documented cases of children using ISR’s survival swimming techniques to save themselves from drowning.
Infant Swimming Resource is the product of years of research and development in the areas of drowning prevention and aquatic survival instruction. Infant Swimming Resource is the first and only nationally recognized program striving to change this statistic.
Founded by Harvey Barnett, Ph.D., in 1966, ISR endeavored to put an end to a preventable tragedy…childhood drowning. Barnett witnessed the aftermath of this tragedy after a neighbor’s 9-month-old son reached the water alone. From that point on, Barnett vowed to do everything possible to ensure that Not One More Child Drowns.
