The Family YMCA of the Desert (Y) has been a trusted pillar of youth and family services for over 40 years and is the largest licensed childcare provider in the Coachella Valley. In addition to three licensed Early Childhood Education sites and five licensed School Age Before and After Elementary School sites, our local Y offers an array of programs for individuals and families, such as youth sports, day and resident camps, youth and government, senior fitness and aquatics.

Committed to providing quality care and educational opportunities, the Y serves infants to teenagers and all ages in between. Beyond its programs, the Y fosters an inclusive, welcoming atmosphere and is committed to extending financial assistance for programs to our local families in need.

The Y is steadfast in its mission and remains focused on being a place for all ages to grow, thrive and learn in a safe and nurturing environment. The collective dedication of Y team members, board of directors, and esteemed supporters values the importance of strengthening community, making a positive impact, and uniting to enrich the lives of local individuals.

Join the fun while supporting the Y as an event attendee, sponsor, donor or volunteer! A cherished Y tradition, this year’s Hoedown in Paradise theme is “Passion and Purpose,” celebrating the dedication of our staff members, board of directors and volunteers. Their commitment resonates with Y’s rich history and ongoing positive contribution to our desert communities.
