A Message From the CEO

As we get closer to reopening our facilities, we are making exciting and difficult decisions about how to ensure the safety of our staff and members, and the long term success of our YMCA as a community asset. It is clear that it will take all of us working together to ensure our branches reopen successfully.
Because we’re all in this together, we want to be transparent in our decision-making processes and ensure you know the basis from which decisions are made.
Our YMCA makes decisions through the frame of our organization’s guiding principles:
  • Connection
  • Cause
  • Collaboration
  • Feedback
  • Improvement
  • Values
  • Fun
These principles have served us well in serving our community. We are confident they will continue to do so as we move into a new phase of community engagement and support.
