I spent 7 years on the Parent Board of SwimMarin helping increase the diversity on our team. Swimming has not traditionally been accessible to and equitable for all communities. In San Rafael, the school district is 77% POC the majority of which is Hispanic/Latino yet the swim teams are often predominantly white. As the team used the local HS pool, it was important that the team reflect the community it serves.
MPOMC is a volunteer run, non-profit organization whose mission is to provide educational, social, and emotional support to parents of twins and triplets (and sometimes more!) before their children are born, as well as during the critical months and years that follow, while also contributing to the larger community by providing basic baby necessities to families with multiples who are in need.
