The United States Lifesaving Association is a nonprofit professional association for beach lifeguards and open-water rescuers in the United States. Based in Laguna Beach, California, it operates within the public safety sector and focuses on reducing fatalities and injuries in aquatic environments. The organization achieves this through public education, establishing national lifeguard standards, and offering training programs, alongside initiatives that promote high levels of lifeguard readiness and other safety measures. As a member-driven body, its primary audience includes lifeguards and open-water rescue personnel who work on beaches and in open-water environments, supported by collaborations with public-safety partners. Its work sits at the intersection of standard-setting, education, and professional development within the lifeguarding field, aiming to raise competencies and preparedness nationwide. In January 2025, the association participated in an Education Conference and partnered with the Southeast Region and the Florida Beach Patrol Chiefs Association to support a combined Education Conference.
