Here at Western Family YMCA, we strive to create fun and engaging teen programming! With the support of the community, currently we have our Teen Outreach, Dungeons and Dragons, Youth in Government (YIG), and Model United Nations (MUN). Our teen programs are more than just a fun place to be. YIG and MUN teach teens on how to become effective political leaders to shape our world. The Teen Outreach program is designed to encourage a healthy life style both physically and mentally. Dungeons and Dragons allows teens to develop their creativity and build team work skills. With your support we can not only keep these programs running but more importantly we can continue to make them accessible to every teen that walks through our doors. 


About YMCA of Delaware

Mission: The YMCA of Delaware’s mission is to empower youth, foster healthy living, and promote strong communities. Our vision is a healthy, inclusive community where all people reach their full potential.

Established in 1889, the YMCA of Delaware impacts the lives of over 150,000 individuals each year through its 7 full-service branches, an urban youth development center, two outdoor recreation complexes, an overnight resident camp, and numerous school partnership sites across the state. We believe our community is strongest when everyone has access to opportunities to learn, grow, and thrive.

For more than 135 years, we've remained committed to empowering youth, fostering healthy living, and building stronger, more equitable communities throughout Delaware. Our programs address critical community needs by preventing chronic diseases like diabetes, promoting educational equity, and ensuring all Delawareans have access to transformative experiences. In 2024 alone, we provided more than $5.24 million in financial assistance, making life-changing YMCA services accessible to nearly 17,000 youth and adults statewide.
