privileged, at home or at-risk, native San Diegans or new to our city,
capital improvements to the YMCA have a multigenerational impact on our
community.

Volunteers Make it Happen at the Y!
Mission Valley YMCA staff and volunteers take part in the Annual Support Campaign. Last year, more than 12,000 people received programs and services valued at more than $1.4 million because of campaign gifts to our YMCA. Volunteers and staff raised this money, which allows us to offer more programs in the future and strengthen those already in place — all with the YMCA's mission as a guide.

Child Safety Statement
At the YMCA, we place extreme value on children’s emotional well-being and physical safety. We are rigorous in our employee screening and selection process. Interviews, reference checks, fingerprinting, and our Staff Code of Conduct are all proven-practices to ensure proper staffing. Once hired, all staff attend a YMCA of the USA Child Abuse Prevention Training Program, and our management staff receive additional training in this area. Additionally, policy disallows any contact
between children and staff outside of YMCA programs or facilities.
We ensure proper staffing and knowledge through YMCA policies and guidelines that include:
- Staff/Child relationships
- Staff recruitment, training and supervision
- Parent’s Rights and Responsibilities
All YMCA staff are mandated reporters of suspected child abuse and are trained in proper reporting procedures to Child Protective Services.
