At the Y, we believe ALL children deserve the opportunity to discover who they are, and what they can achieve. Every day, we are proud and respectful of the trust parents and communities around the country place in the Y. From youth sports and overnight summer camp; from out-of-school time to preschool; we work to ensure your children have a safe, fun filled experience.

Child protection is our number one priority year-round. During April–Child Abuse Prevention Month–we participate in a week-long campaign called Five Days of Action to increase awareness of child sexual abuse and empower and equip our communities to prevent it. By taking part in this important campaign and through implementing abuse prevention practices year-round, we can all commit to the safety of all children in our care.

The Know. See. Respond. campaign continues and Praesidium, Saprea, and Lauren's Kids have shared resources to support this campaign. We pledge to protect the children we serve and hope you will too!

Built for parents who need to know: “Is my child safe here?”
