Strengthening Community Is Our Cause

At the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Every day, we work side-by-side with our neighbors to make sure that everyone, regardless of age, income and background, has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.

Anchored in neighborhoods of Butler County, the Y believes that lasting personal and social change can only come about when we all work together to invest in our kids, our health and our community.
