Gaston County Family Ymca

Youth Development: Our Y is committed to nurturing the potential of every child and we continue to be committed to supporting youth and families with childcare options. We believe that this focus on social and emotional health, values education, skill development, and relationship building leads to positive behaviors, better health and educational achievement. Our YMCA programs such as Safety Around Water, Youth Sports, Summer Day Camp, Y Afterschool, and Teen Mental Health Awareness offer a range of life skills that enrich cognitive, social, physical and emotional growth. Our YMCA believes every family should have access to affordable programs.

Social Responsibility: Our Y believes in giving back and supporting our community. We have been listening and responding to our community's most critical social needs for more than 60 years. Throughout the year we engaged in programs and initiatives focused on strengthening Gaston County. This includes working with youth, adults, seniors, families, staff, and volunteers to pave the way for future generations to thrive.
