Social Responsibility
We’re committed to advancing equity, diversity, and inclusion in our communities.
Through community programs like the Adult Day Program, Youth Transitions, and Be You, we support people from all backgrounds and inspire action in our communities. By welcoming people of all generations, backgrounds and perspectives we are creating a community where everyone belongs.
“Before taking part in the YMCA’s Youth Transitions Program, I was feeling pretty hopeless. I didn’t think I had what it takes to be a functional human being. The YTP team showed me how to set goals and helped me work towards them or connected me with people who could. Now I have a job, a way to get there, and am constantly growing as a musician. I still have hard days, but it’s easier when you know that the Y has your back.”
- Kennedy, YTP Participant
The Need
Thriving communities are equitable and reflect the diversity of their members. We need to provide and support initiatives that allow communities that have been historically marginalized, oppressed, and underprivileged to have a voice and receive necessary supports to thrive.
