About the Bellevue Family Y

The Y is where families thrive, communities come together, and Whole Person Health is achieved – for all. At the Bellevue Family Y, we’ve created a gathering place where families can engage in activities together, youth and teens can learn life and leadership skills, seniors can socialize and improve their health, and adults can find community, well-being, and support.

The Bellevue Family YMCA was founded more than 50 years ago and is the original Eastside YMCA. Over the years, we’ve evolved to meet the growing and changing needs of our Bellevue, Kirkland, and Redmond communities. The demographics of our YMCA staff reflect our increasingly diverse communities (more than 1/3 of residents born outside the U.S.). From Kids University sites in Redmond, Teen Programs in Kirkland and Family and Senior activities at our main location, our Bellevue Family YMCA is supporting the community in a comprehensive and meaningful way.
