The Lifesaving Society has a new program for families called Family Swim to Survive. It uses the same skills and principles as Swim to Survive but is designed for adults as well as children and allows family members to participate in the Swim to Survive program together. The Society defines the minimum skills needed to survive an unexpected fall into deep water. These are expressed in a skill sequence in the Canadian Swim to Survive standard: Roll into deep water, Tread water for one minute, Swim 50 metres. Families must have a minimum of 1 parent/guardian in the water at all times to assist with swim instruction and safety supervision. Each registration can be a minimum of 2 swimmers, up to 4 swimmers.
