How To: SafeSport

LHRC agrees and adheres to USRowing's SafeSport program, designed to assure athlete safety 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).

Every individual member who is 18 years old or older must self-attest whether they are a Relevant Adult Participant as defined in the USRowing Safe Sport Policy.

To self-attest, log into your USRowing member portal account and complete the 3-question pop-up questionnaire. After completing, the profile page will update and indicate whether you need to take SafeSport training.  

It is your responsibility to re-attest if you believe your Relevant Adult Participant status may have changed.

All USRowing Relevant Adult Participants are required to take the 90-minute SafeSport Trained course. After that, you must complete a 30-minute Refresher course annually. If you’re not a Relevant Adult Participant based on your self-attestation, you’re not required to complete SafeSport training.
