Many school districts transitioned to remote or hybrid learning environments at various points over the past two years. YMCAs across the country are working to ensure their programming not only aligns with and complements the work of schools as they meet state and local guidelines, but that programs are also executed safely and in ways that advance our commitment to equity.

The National Association of Elementary School Principals (NAESP) has identified the Y as a partner for afterschool programming. Learn more about how the Y supports success of 500,000 children at an estimated 10,000 sites each year.
