2017 BENEFITS TO THE COMMUNITY 5 AN INVESTMENT IN THE FUTURE: YMCA CHILDCARE SERVICES As the largest child care provider in the region, we delivered impactful school age enrichment and summer day camp programs to kids in Allen, Whitley and Wells counties last year. Since we invest in youth, our curriculum exceeds traditional daycare and includes activities that focus on the whole child – spirit, mind, and body. We infuse kids with the Y’s core values of caring, honesty, respect and responsibility, model behaviors that lead to positive relationships, emphasize wellness and education achievement – all which lead to a better future.
CHILDREN IN NEED Juvenile crime and victimization peak in the hours after school, yet 1 in 5 kids are on their own during these hours – plus, kids who aren’t in afterschool programs go to school less frequently which reduces the likelihood of advancing to the next grade. 33.9% of Indiana children ages 10-17 are overweight or obese. Studies show students in afterschool programs are more physically fit.
