Mission

The YMCA of the Virginia Peninsulas strives to be a leading family advocate in the community, inclusive and open to all people, responsive to community needs, committed to building character, wellness, and fellowship through programs which promote moral and ethical values and bring all members of our community together for the common good.

We work together with communities to provide programs like Before and After School Child Care, Preschool, Day Camps, Swimming and Swim Lessons, Family Activities, Sports for adults and children, Art programs, Health and Exercise, specialty programs for teens and older adults, and many more.
