I started coming to the Y a few years ago for their Silver Sneakers exercise program. (Yes, I've been "silver" and wearing sneakers for awhile...) and I soon came to realize and admire the wonderful work they do for all ages. After 40+ years as an educator committed to providing more equitable opportunities for young people from under-served communities, I am so moved by the commitment and success this Y has for respectfully serving all families. Recently I was honored to be elected on the Board of Directors here, and I am happy to help raise money for the Monroe Family YMCA Annual Support Campaign; the Y is truly working actively for a more healthy, just community. Please join me in this effort.


Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income, or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow, and thrive.

We believe that lasting personal and social change can only come about when we all work together. That's why, at the Y, strengthening community is our cause.

With a focus on youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility, the Y works to nurture the potential of children and teens, improve the nation's health and well-being, and give back and support our neighbors.

At the Y, no child, family, or adult is turned away. We recognize that for communities to succeed, everyone must be given the opportunity to be healthy, confident, connected, and secure.
