Diversity

Rancho Family YMCA celebrates and encourages the diversity of our membership and staff. We strive to learn from all cultures to improve our programs and to ensure that people of all backgrounds and capabilities feel welcome to participate in rewarding activities that will strengthen the health and vitality of the YMCA and the communities we serve.

At the Rancho Family YMCA we value our core values—caring, honesty, respect, responsibility. These attributes of personal character and ethical behavior are essential to attaining our mission. Every day in every program we demonstrate these values to our members and encourage both children and adults to be caring, honest, respectful, and responsible in their lives and interactions with others.

October is Character Development month at the YMCA. We bring attention to our core values of Caring, Honesty, Respect, and Responsibility through our programs and special activities. These values are taught and demonstrated year-round at the Y, with special emphasis during October.
