The organization operates 16 state-of-the-art YMCA locations across the Metro Dallas area and offers over 250 programs. It also runs a premier resident camp, YMCA Camp Grady Spruce, along with more than 20 day camps, and has expanded cabin capacity at Camp Grady Spruce from 144 to 256 beds, with cabins and a renovated dining hall on the Ray Bean side and a new Welcome Center planned.
The YMCA of Metropolitan Dallas is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit social services organization dedicated to Youth Development, Healthy Living, and Social Responsibility. Its mission states that promoting a healthy lifestyle is at the heart of its work. The organization describes that it intentionally leads and models a culture of engagement and belonging through volunteerism, outreach programs, and partnerships. In partnership with the City of Waxahachie and Ellis County, Texas, it broke ground on the Cindy Hess Memorial Park, which features a pavilion, walking trail, sports fields, outdoor fitness areas, and more.
The leadership team for growth includes Elise Back, Chief Growth Officer. One parent, Mayela, shared that during a divorce and transition to one income, the YMCA provided a scholarship for her son to play baseball. Another participant, Shirley, from the Blood Pressure Self-Monitoring Program, reported that staff support led to discovering that her blood pressure was in the danger zone and to a change in her medication.
