What it reported doing in 2023

Youth development: youth & family our ymca is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and teen. We believe that all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve. The key focus of ymca youth programming is to foster growth and development, not only in children but also in the parents and families. Educational programs help children develop moral and ethical behavior, self-esteem and leadership. These programs focus on four core values- caring, honesty, respect and responsibility. Parents play an important role in policy and program decisions through involvement in evaluation sessions and on volunteer committees. The primetime programs in many cases allow parents of the children to remain gainfully employed, knowing that their children are well cared for in a safe clean, supportive environment. Transportation is available for elementary aged youth after school to ease the parental strain of arranging transportation and having the children home alone until they are able to return from work. Summer camp programs and school's out camps are educational, promote spiritual awareness and mental development, physical well-being, social growth and a respect for both the environment and the individual. Through a variety of activities and well-trained leadership, these special camping activities seek to help participants achieve their fullest potential. Family opportunities for use of the ymca facilities help all individuals within the family unit grow as responsible members of their own family. Activities and facilities provide children and parents with opportunities to participate and foster the companionship between parent and child. The ymca offers youth basketball, t-ball and soccer. This helps teach the importance of team spirit in the fact that everyone on the team must play in the game. Parents of the children volunteer as coaches to help the children learn not only the rules of the sports, but most importantly the lessons of sharing and self-esteem. Ymca also offers track, swim team, and splash-n-dash programs. Three programs that are free to the community are movie day, healthy kids day, back to school bash and girl's night art. As is all ymca programs, financial assistance is available for the youth and family programs for those who cannot afford the program dues. No one should be denied service for inability to pay.
