Healthy Aging at the YMCA
At the Y we honor and treasure our older adults and recognize how you play a key role in the vitality of our neighborhoods, networks, and lives. The Y strengthens communities by providing older adults with programs and services designed to keep you healthy, active, and socially connected. We welcome diverse groups of people, ideas, and actions, to create an environment free of racism and inequality.
We understand it is important to stay connected to people and your community. We are excited for you to learn all about the Y’s programs and offerings to help you stay healthy at any age!
