NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — It's a good time to remind you: this is Water Safety Month and a good time to take stock of your skills.
Whether your summer plans takes you to the community pool, a water park, the river, or a beach, being confident around water often starts with a class.
NewsChannel 5's Carrie Sharp spoke to Jerrica Williams today about what the American Red Cross offers to help swimmers feel more confident.
"Our training providers do offer swimming classes for adults and children. We also offer life guarding courses and those can all be found by visiting redcross.org/takeaclass."
You can also take life saving courses like First Aid, CPR, and AED training.

This is a beautiful story of chosen family, proving a father figure doesn't have to have biology in common to make a difference in a child's life. The story of De'Andre and Alex will remind you that our relationships help determine the course of our lives. And that being supportive of someone - through a meal, a shared experience or even swim lessons can make all the difference.
