Success Stories

"My daughter is eight years old and has a family history of high blood pressure and diabetes.  Our family doctor was concerned about Nicole adopting a healthy lifestyle early-on and recommended the Strong Kids program at the Highline YMCA.  Nicole now reads nutrition labels, encourages the whole family to go for a walk or ride a bike instead of watching TV.  She is more willing to try new foods and is enjoying cooking healthy snacks - she even turns down junk food - her whole approach to health has changed for the better!"
Olympia, Strong Kids parent

"As a single mom, I depend on the YMCA child care program.  I love that my son gets his homework done, has a healthy snack, participates in fun activities, and has an opportunity to run around and play games!"
