Belonging doesn't happen by accident. It happens through intentional action.

Our DEIB Committee is seeking individuals who want to help foster a culture of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging across the YMCA of Greater Brandywine.

If you're interested in being part of the conversation and helping shape a welcoming environment for all, we'd love to hear from you.
