ADVOCATES FOR CHILDREN & FAMILIES

The Children’s Advocacy YMCA Family Center provides programs and services for school-age youth, teens of all abilities, adults and children with special needs year-round. Our goal is to ensure every participant has his or her own unique opportunity to reach their full potential. Although they are all unique in their delivery, every Y program is planned with the individual child in mind and our core character values at it's heart.

• Provide a safe, structured and enriching recreation based environment
• Improve academic functioning
• Aid children in reaching developmental benchmarks
• Instill the YMCA core character values: Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility
• Promote positive, pro-social relationships
• Support working parents
• Promote Health & Wellness
• Provide inclusive programming for children of all developmental levels.
• Increase exposure and interest in the various disciplines of art
• Create a sense of community through programs that engage children, adolescents and adults collectively.

The Y’s inclusive approach to programming assures that every Y participant receives the same quality experiences, regardless of their physical, mental or developmental level.
