Community Services
The Y of Central New Mexico Community Development strives to be a vibrant, active part of New Mexico through advocacy and representation in all people serving organizations. The Y of Central New Mexico is a cause related non-profit that aims to meet the needs of all people from infant to Seniors. Our local branches work closely providing services, yet, our role as a trend setting movement keeps us current by serving our communities on a daily basis. The Y can be seen collaborating on various local committees, working interactively in local grant funded projects as well as advocating in several arenas to better the people of New Mexico.
Faith Communities
The YMCA of Central New Mexico and faith communities are a natural collaboration. Churches are committed to helping families and individuals find their way through innovative programming and resources such as marriage counseling, financial services, youth programming, services for families needing support with disabilities, senior outreach and much more.
Community Partnerships
We strive to be a vibrant, active part of New Mexico through advocacy and representation in people- and community-focused organizations.
Global Services
The YMCA of Central New Mexico believes building a strong global community begins here in our local community. In our extended day learning programs, for example, we emphasize awareness of all cultures. While learning about other countries, our children and teens learn about the food, language and customs of different cultures.
Social Services
The YMCA of New Mexico strives to support social responsibility through intentional, strategic alignment with partners working towards youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. Thanks to our collaborative partnerships we can maximize our strength and avoid duplicating services.
Advocacy
One of the ways the YMCA of Central New Mexico encourages social responsibility is through grassroots community organization and advocacy.
