The YMCA of Central Texas states its mission as putting Christian principles into practice through programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all. The organization’s Licensed Child Care Department is the largest provider of child care in Williamson County, and it continues to be the largest provider of child care in that county. The Y is described as the nation’s leading nonprofit organization for youth development, healthy living, and social responsibility, and the YMCA of Central Texas is committed to a diverse and inclusive environment where all are welcome and have access to Y programs and services. The YMCA provides financial aid for memberships, and it conducts regular sex offender screenings on all members, participants, and guests and may cancel membership or program participation if a sex offender match occurs.

The history of the YMCA of Central Texas includes the creation of a United Way “Youth Contingency Fund” in 1976, relocation of a portable to Main Street during the 1980s, and a 1987 donation of building space on Mays Street in Round Rock by the Texas Baptist Children’s Home. One year later, a fitness center was established by leasing space in a partially vacated shopping center, and by 1990 the Y leased the entire shopping center before purchasing it in 1992. The Y adopted a metropolitan structure in 1994 and assumed management of the 50-acre Twin Lakes Park in Cedar Park, opened the Hill Country Family YMCA in Cedar Park in 1997, and expanded programs to Taylor in 1998. The overall Y organization was born over 150 years ago, and for nearly 160 years the Y has been listening and responding to communities, with more than 2,600 YMCAs in 10,000 communities in the U.S. and service to more than 45 million people in 124 countries worldwide.

The YMCA of Central Texas’ Licensed Child Care Department is described as the largest provider of child care in Williamson County, and partnerships with school districts, community businesses, and well trained staff support Y Afterschool programs. The YMCA of Greater Williamson County established its first school-based after-school program in 1989 by partnering with Round Rock ISD, and Ys across the U.S. play a role in strengthening the leadership and youth programs of the Y around the world, connecting people of all ages and backgrounds and providing ways to give back and support neighbors.
