“promise to strengthen our community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. We as an association are committed to serve everyone, regardless of age, gender and ability. The safety and well-being of each person we serve is our number one priority. We work with each individual and family to find the programs that provide the safest environment for them to thrive. Our Cause Defines Us We know that lasting personal and social change comes when we all work together. That's why, at the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income, background, or abilities, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive. Our Strength is in Community The YMCA mission comes alive through three areas of focus that help people: - YOUTH DEVELOPMENT: Nurturing the potential of every child and teen, - HEALTHY LIVING: Improving the community's health and well-being, and - SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY: Giving back and providing support to our neighbors. The YMCA mission comes alive through the efforts of: - Paid staff - full and part time; from teens to seniors, - Volunteers - who lead program and make policy, and - Members - who are mentors, coaches and donors At the root of our mission is a commitment to the YMCA values education program entitled Character Development. Character development focuses on five core values - caring, faith, honesty, respect, and responsibility. These values provide the fundamental basis for all YMCA operations, staff development, program development, and program delivery. The YMCA stands together with families, schools, churches, businesses, hospitals, government agencies, and other organizations to build strong kids, strong families, and strong communities. In today's society, the YMCA's role is to give youth and adults experiences that help them develop a set of positive values, morals, and ethics that they will live by. It is essential to a successful, strong community that all youth and adults live according to values necessary for healthy human development in spirit, mind and body. The YMCA's strength is about more than building muscle. It's about family, serving 33,821 members of all ages forming our YMCA family. It's about options-more than 200 programs allow people to choose the activity that best supports their interests. Building a foundation - more than 14,753 youth were provided positive opportunities through outreach programs and membership. And, it's about working together - Community collaborations with local hospitals, schools, churches, parks, and other non-profit organizations. The Great Miami Valley YMCA served at seven branches throughout Butler County. The YMCA reaches out well beyond their own brick and mortar, by extending programs and services in partnership with more than 75 schools, churches, public facilities and other organizations.”
