GREATER PROVIDENCE YMCA

Providence, RI

    • Mission

    The Providence Youth Services YMCA Branch (PYS) is unlike any other branch of the YMCA of Greater Providence. PYS is not a facility branch, but a branch devoted to the children and families of Providence, Rhode Island. Everyone at PYS is committed to a community-based approach to delivering health and wellness opportunities, academic enrichment and achievement, and youth development skills. PYS offers carefully developed programs that serve each neighborhood uniquely by collaborating with schools, community partners, and local businesses to support bright futures for healthy, engaged families and connected communities.

    About Us

    PYS serves students in Out of School Time (OST) from 10 elementary schools throughout Providence. PYS also offers summer learning programs at our branch location on Broad Street, as well as day camp for ages 3 years old to 9th grade at Camp Ok-Wa-Nessett. Along with our OST programs, our branch is also home to our community room, and space for our community partners to meet and contribute to the success and development of our neighborhood.

    PYS is also the home to the Y’s mobile outreach component - Y on the Move. The Y on the Move van travels throughout the area engaging youth and families of Providence in health and wellness activities that increase their physical fitness and help them combat the growing epidemic of childhood obesity and other related illnesses while having fun in a safe, supervised environment.
