The Family YMCA of Black Hawk County

Wellness: through our core values of honesty, respect, caring, and responsibility we strive to encourage people to live a healthy lifestyle. We offer programs for all ages and stages through The healthy kids day, start somewhere walk, and silver sneaker program to those who are already at and maintaining a very healthy lifestyle. Through our encouragement and assistance, 3,800 people are working toward a more physically, mentally, and spiritually rewarding life.

Child care: child care is a premier program at The Family Ymca of Black Hawk County. We offer scholarships as well as dhs acceptance to make child care affordable to anyone. Because of our facility, we can offer swim lessons and other recreational activities to these children in addition to stimulating their minds. We incorporate healthy meals and snacks into The day as well as working with parents toward that same healthy lifestyle at home. On any given day, approximately 30 children are impacted by instructors and programming designed to develop a great foundation for healthy living into adulthood and to serve as a complement to parent efforts in rearing their children

Before/after school: The Family Ymca of Black Hawk County works to ensure that youth have access to affordable and quality before/after school programming. We strive to provide a safe and nurturing environment around caring adults where children can learn, play, and grow. The before/after school programming provides a practical child care option for working parents. Throughout The school year, approximately 250 children are from low income households and are served via a scholarship.

The Ymca of Black Hawk County has multiple other small programs they offer.
