Our Mission

Our Strength is in Community

The mission of the YMCA is to put Judeo-Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all.

The Y is an inclusive organization joined together by a shared commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living, and fostering a sense of social responsibility.

For over 170 years, the YMCA has served communities in the Metro Detroit region through programs and services where children and families can grow.

When you are part of the Y you become part of a community and an organization that is actively and visibly improving outcomes for all.

The Y is a nonprofit like no other. We strengthen communities by connecting people to their potential, purpose and each other. In 10,000 communities across the country, the YMCA has the presence and partnerships not only to promise but to deliver positive change.

We are committed to ensuring that our members, program participants, donors, volunteers and team members feel a sense of achievement, connection and belonging. As with everything we do, we are guided by our core values of caring, honesty, inclusion, respect, and responsibility-values that compel us to recognize the value of every person and to be an organization for all.
