Our Mission

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.

The Y is a founding nonprofit organization, offering health, hope, and opportunity:

 

  • Parents find a safe, nurturing environment for their children to stay active, be engaged, and learn positive values.
  • Children and teens play and develop self-confidence while feeling accepted and supported.
  • Adults connect with friends, pursue interests, and learn how to live healthier.
  • People from all backgrounds and walks of life come together to volunteer and help strengthen their community.
