Omega Aquatics is proud to sponsor Stars International, a non-profit organization using scuba diving as a medium to help at-risk community teens.

The Omega S.T.A.R.S. Program (Scuba Training for At-Risk Students) was modeled after several years of field-tested pilot programs in the greater Chicago area in 2005 and 2006. STARS International focuses solely on at-risk youth ages 13-17 with the goal of providing a positive diversionary activity which reinforces and supports local academic achievement and career development.

Through the Omega S.T.A.R.S. Program, Omega Aquatics will help the organization build affiliate programs throughout the U.S., contributing to the advancement of hundreds of teens each year while promoting the scuba diving industry. More information about the Omega S.T.A.R.S. Program, and how you or your organization can help, will be posted later this month.
