We are honored! The Jewish Community Alliance was selected as one of the Top 10 finalists in the 2025 Life Fitness Community Impacts Awards! Voting went live today, and we need your vote to get in the Top 3 and win a grant for our Sensory Safe Swimming program! Follow this link to vote for the Jewish Community Alliance, now through July 4, 2025, and the top three winners will be announced in July.
Our JCA was nominated in the LifeFitness/Hammer Strength® contest because of all the things we do to improve quality of life with our Sensory Safe Swimming program. With your votes, we can win a $2,500 grant from LifeFitness/Hammer Strength for our inclusive aquatics program. Designed specifically for autistic children and adults, Sensory Safe includes adaptive swim instruction, led by our JCA’s Red Cross-certified instructors with sensory-aware training.
For many families, this is the first aquatics program they experience where their child is truly supported, and we believe it is critical for a foundation of wellness around water. Through partnerships with the North Florida School of Special Education and Special Olympics Florida, our JCA is truly making a difference in providing access to aquatics and fitness programs at an early age, assuring every child has the opportunity to thrive.
Remember voting ends on July 4. Vote now for the Jewish Community Alliance!
