Every Tuesday, we will host group training sessions for youth in grades 6th-12th

This will include plyometric training that will increase strength and agility and boost speed!

The Jordan Teen Advisory Board meets every other Thursday to plan events and programs for teens at the Jordan YMCA.

This group will meet with the intention of giving our teens a space to give some insight on their strengths, interest and needs. The Teen Director will work directly with this group and the community to implement new programming and participate in community projects based on the needs of the community. This group will also attend life-skill development workshops that will provide them with knowledge and skills to navigate their lives as they grow.

Location:  Fort Ben Library

Every Friday from 7pm to 10pm the YMCA will host a free Teen Lounge. This is meant to be a 3rd place for teenagers to go besides school and home. In the lounge, we will have music, food, video games, and teen resources. From 7-8pm are for ages 14-16 and 16-18 can stay until 10pm.
