Our Mission

The YMCA of the Chippewa Valley comes alive to ignite the human spirit by partnering with the community and providing an environment that supports youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility.
 

Through our many youth, family, and adult programs, we offer a great place where people of all ages can go to exercise their minds and bodies.
 

Mission Statement: To put Christian principles into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind, and body for all.

Vision: We build strong kids, strong families, strong communities.

AREAS OF FOCUS

At the Y, we know that positive change only occurs when we invest in our kids, our health, and our neighbors. All of our programs and community initiatives fall into one or more of the following focus areas.

Healthier Families

The YMCA is committed to building strong communities by providing resources for families to live their safest and healthiest lives. We assist families in battling chronic diseases and obesity, eliminating risk of drowning and preventing child abuse. By taking advantage of our deep roots in the community and strong ties to local health care providers and other service organizations, the YMCA has the infrastructure to improve the health and safety of our families by providing evidence-based programs to help prevent or reverse these critical issues.

Empowered Youth

We believe that ALL children and teens have potential. Thanks to the YMCA, more young people are taking a greater interest in learning and making smart life choices. Working with caring Y staff, children and teens are able to realize their potential by improving their educational readiness and closing achievement gaps. By building confident kids today the Y is helping to assure that they will become contributing and engaged adults tomorrow.
