Pools For The People

Ways To Subscribe

Everyone deserves a safe place to swim, but we live in a region of pool haves and have-nots: Kansas City, Kansas, has zero public pools open this summer, while Lenexa has three pools for one-third the population.

KCUR serves the Kansas City region with breaking news and powerful storytelling.
