At the Santa Monica Family YMCA, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income or background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

Our YMCA works to meet the needs of the community, developing programming, services, initiatives, and partnerships to close opportunity gaps. From high-quality programs across Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility, we are determined to provide experiences for our community that benefit everyone’s quality of life. We create avenues of access for people who face financial barriers, ensuring that vital programs like preschool, swim lessons, youth sports, active older adult services, and more are available to more people than ever.
