ADAPTIVE PROGRAMS
The impact of these programs goes far beyond the fun activities planned. The Y believes that in a diverse world we are stronger when we are inclusive, when our doors are open to all and when everyone has the opportunity to learn, grow and thrive.
IN THE NEWS
In Fall 2023, the WWFY “Team Happy” played in their first Special Olympics Unified Basketball Tournament and went on to place first for their division in the State Tournament! “It’s not about the color of the medal, but the process. These participants have worked really hard improving their skills, attention, and teamwork. It is so rewarding to see their progress and dedication shine through”, said Christina I. Scherwin, Chief Operations Officer of the Westport Weston Family YMCA.
