About
Healthy Living: The Y is a leading voice on health and well-being. We bring families closer together, encourage good health, and foster connections through fitness, water activities, fun and shared interests. As a result, more than 30,000 people in our community are receiving the support, guidance and resources they need to achieve greater health in spirit, mind and body. This is particularly important as our nation struggles with an obesity crisis, families struggle with work/life balance, and individuals search for personal fulfillment. Our programs are accessible, affordable and open to all faiths, backgrounds, abilities and income levels. In 2018 we provided $244,430 in financial assistance for healthy living, education, and leadership to people who otherwise would have faced economic barriers barring them from participation.
