Testimonials

“I love being a part of a group of peers to lead others in a safe space. This is the biggest inspiration for why I joined. We can be ourselves, encourage others to be themselves, and build community here at the Y.”

"The Teen Advisory Board is bringing together kids from different grades and schools to help kids in the community. We are building a connection with others, honoring the same goal to help kids find their passion. I was encouraged by my friend, Brendan Robben, who said, "It’s going to be so fun giving back and helping our community.’ It truly is the best feeling in the world to help the next kids develop a sense of belonging."
