Whitney Frye is the director of USA Basketball’s Safe Sport program.

The Safe Sport initiative raises awareness about misconduct in sports. It also serves to promote open dialogue and provide training and resources to all participants of the game—players, parents, and coaches. Safe Sport aims to create a healthy and supportive environment with a focus on safety.

In this episode she talks about her responsibilities, which include coordinating the background screening process, and serving as the primary liaison for youth coach license complaints and incidents. 

She talks about the different resources that are available to coaches and parents. It all adds up to a great culture.
