Welcome
Since 1868 the YMCA of Columbia-Willamette has offered a diverse range of quality, affordable programs that help children thrive and grow, inspire young people to lead, bring families closer together and encourage individual health and wellness. Our programs in the Portland and Vancouver regional area provide safe, caring environments, positive role models and opportunities to serve the needs of others. These are the building blocks for strong kids, strong families and strong communities.
We invite you to see how you and your family can enhance your life, connect with your community and become healthier in the process.
