LIVESTRONG® at the YMCA is an evidence-based program that helps adult cancer survivors reclaim their health and well-being following a cancer diagnosis. We offer this program to the survivor at no cost; it includes a free YMCA membership for the participant and their family. Participating YMCAs create a welcoming area in which survivors can improve their strength and physical fitness, lessen the harshness of therapy side effects, develop supportive relationships, and improve their quality of life.

The Y offers programs that help you meet your goals for a healthy mind, body, and spirit! Join a small group of peers for a more personalized workout, learn proper lifting techniques, and more! Keep checking back for programs as they rotate throughout the year!
