The Y is a diverse organization of men, women and children joined together by a shared commitment to strengthen community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. The Y gives children, families and individuals the support and resources they need to be more healthy, confident, connected and secure.
A strong community can only be achieved when we invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. We strengthen community through programs, services and initiatives that enable kids and teens to realize their potential, offer ways for families to have fun together, empower people to be healthier in spirit, mind and body, and help foster a nationwide service ethic. The next time someone asks you what the Y is all about, simply say “the Y is for Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility!”
