About
YOUTH DEVELOPMENT: The Y nurtures the potential of every child and teen by supporting his or her unique development journey with holistic programming. From cradle to career, the Y provides all youth with the tools and resources needed to succeed in life. Childcare and early learning programs at the Y focus on nurturing the developing child by providing a safe and healthy place to learn foundational skills, build healthy, trusting relationships and self-reliance through the Y's values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. In 2019, the Y served 2,115 children in Before & After School Care and Early Learning Programs. Overnight and day camps at the Y share one thing: they're all about discovery. Kids have the opportunity to explore nature, find their talents, try new activities, gain independence and make lasting friendships and memories. In 2019, 2,836 children learned more about who they are and what they can become in YMCA overnight and summer day camps. All kids have great potential. At the Y, we work every day to help them set and achieve personal and educational goals. Children and teens build skills and confidence as they explore new interests and passions through the Y. Leadership and academic enrichment programs-including Teen Clubs, Youth and Government and college preparation-along with our dedicated efforts to close the academic achievement gap for low-income youth, ensure that every child has an opportunity to envision and pursue the best possible future. The Y is the starting point for many kids to learn about becoming and staying active and developing healthy habits they will carry with them throughout their lives. In addition, the benefits are far greater than just physical health. Whether it is gaining the confidence that comes from learning to swim or building positive relationships that lead to good sportsmanship and teamwork, participating in sports at the Y is about building the whole child, from the inside out. In 2019, 32,508 children ages participated in YMCA youth sports programs.
