Everyone knows the Y as a place to camp, swim, or exercise, but we’re so much more. We’re working side-by-side with our neighbors to address critical community needs that help kids develop into smart, resilient adults, for people to improve their health and build a sense of community, and for our most vulnerable young people to get the care and support they need.
For more than 160 years, we’ve been bringing families, neighbors and friends together in a motivated and fun environment to learn, play and grow. Through youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility, we’re committed to nurturing potential and strengthening communities.
At the Y, we measure the success of our cause by how well we engage communities in our three areas of impact:
With a local presence and national reach, our mission is to bring people together in pursuit of spiritual, mental and physical growth, to build community, and to serve.
We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Put simply, the YMCA is about you—and all of us—growing better together.
