About us
YMCA of the USA is the national resource office for the nation's YMCAs. Headquartered in Chicago, IL, YMCA of the USA exists to serve YMCAs. To address the specific needs of communities, each YMCA is an independent organization, autonomous and separate from YMCA of the USA. They are required by the national constitution to pay annual dues, to refrain from discrimination and to support the YMCA mission. All other decisions are local choices, including programs offered, staffing and style of operation. Learn, Grow and Thrive with a Career at the Y Imagine going to work knowing that what you do each day positively affects the lives of the people in your community. Working at the Y, you'll discover more than a job-you'll enjoy a career with a future and the opportunity to make a lasting difference in the lives of those around you. Our staff members-of all ages and from diverse backgrounds and life experiences-enjoy the personal satisfaction that comes from nurturing the potential of youth and teens, improving the nation's health and well-being and providing support to our neighbors.

Together with Catholic Charities USA, Interfaith America , and Habitat for Humanity we are proud to mark the launch of the Team Up Project. This brand new initiative seeks to counteract the rising sense of polarization, feelings of isolation and growing social rifts currently being experienced throughout our communities. By making use of our organizations' combined resources to facilitate bridgebuilding opportunities and elevate ordinary acts of kindness, we believe we can facilitate true human connections and widen the path to a more united country.

I'm excited to be in Washington, D.C., this week with a record number of The Y (YMCA) staff, volunteers and youth advocates for YMCA National Advocacy Days! We’re looking forward to meeting with our members of Congress to talk about the many ways YMCAs are strengthening communities across the country and ask for their partnership in addressing some of our country’s most pressing needs. Thank you to The Washington Post’s Senior Congressional Correspondent Paul Kane for joining us to share your insights as we prepare for our meetings with lawmakers. And thank you to our Y colleagues and partners leading our Team Up initiative for sharing your stories about helping people with different perspectives in your communities connect through the Y and find common ground. I’m proud to have all our Y advocates taking our message to the Hill this week! #YAdvocates #YMCA #Advocacy

“I would love for people and communities to say the YMCA helped heal our communities during this time of polarization because we were that place where we could talk about differences and we could talk about hard things.” That’s one of my aspirations for The Y (YMCA) that I discussed recently with Professor Brian Lowery of the Stanford University Graduate School of Business for his Leadership for Society conversation series. Thank you, Brian, for the invitation to talk about how the Y is working to build bridges in our communities with spaces that are welcoming to all. I look forward to watching all the conversations in the series this season. #YMCA #ForAll #BuildingBridges #TeamUpForUnity
