Our Commitment

At the Y, we are committed to providing family-oriented, affordable, high quality programs that lead to:

• every family building stronger bonds, achieving greater work/life balance and becoming more engaged with their community

Our Values

Our programs and services are infused with our four positive character values: Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility. We are committed to challenging our members, staff and volunteers to accept and demonstrate these values.

The People We Serve

Serving over 150,000 people each year in Baltimore City and Anne Arundel, Baltimore, Carroll, Harford and Howard Counties, we are the largest provider of child care in Maryland and employ over 800 in health & wellness, camping & youth sports, and child care & family services. Our programs are offered at seven health & wellness centers, two program service centers, 15 Head Start centers, 11 preschool centers, 44 before and after school centers, and 24 youth place centers.

People of all races, ages, faiths, gender, abilities, and incomes are welcome and financial assistance on a sliding scale is available to those who would otherwise be unable to participate. This assistance enables more than 10,000 youth and adults to participate in Y programs and is funded through the generosity of our donors.
