Programs for Youth Development19,230 youth benefited from participating in our YMCA youth programs that include; Early Childhood Education, After School Enrichment, Day Camps, Digital Media Arts, Swimming Lessons, Youth Sports, Bikes for Kids & Resident Camp. We believe that all youth deserve the opportunity to discover their own capabilities and how they can impact the world around them, under the guidance of caring adults who believe in their potential. Every interaction with young people is an opportunity for learning and development that is grounded in the Ys Core Values of Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility.
Programs for Social Responsibility4,026 learned the value of giving back to their community and the importance of social responsibility through involvement with the YMCAs diverse and inclusive programs. With our doors open to all, we take on the most urgent needs in our community and bring together people from all backgrounds and support those who need us most. It is only through the support of our volunteers and donors that we are able to give back to the communities we engage. As a service to our community, we provide programs in Workforce Development, Newcomer Immigrant Orientation, Volunteerism, Leadership Development, and Youth Civic Engagement.
