SKATESAFE®

At Elevate Figure Skating Club, the well-being and safety of our skaters are of utmost importance. That's why we are proud to introduce SkateSafe, a comprehensive program that aligns with US Figure Skating's (USFS) initiative to create a secure and respectful environment for all skaters. SkateSafe encompasses policy, education, monitoring, and various other efforts to ensure that our skating community is free from misconduct and promotes a safe and positive atmosphere.

SkateSafe Highlights:

1. Policy Implementation: We have established clear and comprehensive policies that outline appropriate behavior, ethical standards, and procedures for addressing any concerns or incidents. These policies are designed to safeguard the rights and dignity of every individual within our skating community.

2. Education and Awareness: We believe that knowledge is key to prevention. SkateSafe includes educational initiatives aimed at raising awareness about respectful conduct, safe practices, and how to identify and report any potential misconduct. Skaters, coaches, parents, and staff will have access to resources that empower them to contribute to a secure environment.

3. Ongoing Monitoring: Our commitment to safety doesn't stop at policy implementation. We continuously monitor and evaluate our programs, practices, and interactions to ensure they align with our SkateSafe principles. Regular assessments allow us to identify areas for improvement and address any concerns promptly.

4. Supportive Environment: SkateSafe creates a culture of inclusivity, support, and trust. We encourage open communication and provide resources for reporting any concerns or incidents. Our goal is to foster an environment where skaters can focus on their passion for figure skating without worry.

5. Community Collaboration: We recognize that a safe skating environment requires the collective effort of our entire community. SkateSafe encourages collaboration among skaters, coaches, parents, and staff to uphold our commitment to safety and respect.

SkateSafe embodies Elevate Figure Skating Club's dedication to providing a positive and secure space for skaters to flourish. We are aligned with USFS's vision of a skating community that prioritizes the well-being and enjoyment of every individual. Join us in creating an environment where skaters can thrive, learn, and excel while feeling safe and supported every step of the way.
