Program accomplishments

  • Healthy Living: The YMCA of Central New York aims to improve our region's health by providing programs and activities that promote overall well-being, no matter where someone is on their journey toward better health. And when people feel their best and have fulfilling lifestyles, their communities become stronger, too. Our Safety Around Water program teaches essential water safety skills, opening up a world of possibilities to satisfying youthful curiosity in a safe, structured environment. We strive to strengthen the bond-and bridge the gap-between traditional healthcare and community-based preventative strategies to help prevent chronic disease and create communities we all want to live in. Shared interests bring people together and promote well-being. If you want to learn to write, create pottery, try a game of pickleball, or run a 5k, you've come to the right place.

Our leadership and academic enrichment programs throughout Onondaga County help thousands of young people build the skills and confidence not only to reach their potential, but to enact positive change in their communities. From gaining confidence to fostering positive relationships, sports and play at the Y are about building lifelong, healthy habits from the inside out.

We work to provide kids, families and our community with the resources and opportunities they need to learn, grow and thrive. Through our programs, we deliver training, resources and support which empowers our neighbors to effect change, bridge gaps and overcome obstacles. At our Downtown Men's Residence, we provide counseling, subsidized housing, and other support services to men in transition. Our Downtown Senior Center provides subsidized housing to senior citizens and people with disabilities. Our Access & Ability services ensure that more people, regardless of ability, can access our programming. Our Y on the Fly and 1115 Medicaid Waiver initiatives continue to lower barriers to access support.
