How to Participate

Why do so many people feel like they belong at the Y?  One reason is that no other single membership provides so many ways to exercise spirit, mind, and body as the YMCA. So, whether your life is about shaping up, studying up, meeting up or growing up, it all begins with signing up at the YMCA.

We have a wonderful community of people here at the New Haven Y Youth Center! It’s a positive, supportive environment where community youth can feel comfortable while pursuing the activities that interest them most.

The New Haven YMCA Youth Center is youth serving branch, not a full facility branch. We encourage adults to explore membership opportunities at other branches in the Central Connecticut Coast YMCA family.
