Community Impact Projects

What We Do

We support leaders across communities and systems — including organizations, corporations, and government agencies — who are seeking to:

  • Bridge differences and foster collaboration
  • Help teams navigate change with confidence
  • Create a culture of belonging
  • Connect teams to purpose and community impact
  • Embrace continuous learning and improvement
  • Sharpen skills and strategies for the future
How We Do It

We partner with leaders to drive meaningful change — offering guidance, tools, and spaces that help teams grow stronger and more adaptive. Through services tailored to meet individual needs, we help leaders and organizations confidently navigate transformation. 

Our process starts with listening. We begin with a discovery process to understand your organization’s challenges and then co-create relevant, impactful, and immediately applicable solutions. Our flexible approach offers in-person experiences at local Y locations or on-site at your organization, as well as virtual and hybrid options. 

What Makes Us Different

At the Y, we believe leadership goes beyond skill-building — creating lasting change that makes a positive impact.

Our experienced facilitators bring deep expertise in leadership, culture-building, and systems change.

When you partner with the YMCA, you're not just investing in your team — you're also supporting youth and community programs that create lasting impact. We have empowered generations through programs fostering leadership skills, civic engagement, personal growth, and hope, shaping future leaders in various fields. Our commitment to communities and service continues to inspire positive change globally.
