We’re For Healthy Living
Healthy living is a fundamental focus of the YMCA. That is why the Harrisburg Area YMCA provides classes, programs, and info to ensure you achieve your maximum level of well-being. Our locations partner with both the American Lung Association in Pennsylvania and the American Heart Association. Together, we create programs that focus on the education and support of members of our community to live healthier lifestyles.
We provide programs for all ages and a variety of areas. Additionally, select branches participate in the largest national celebration of health for kids and families, Healthy Kids Day®. This day encourages children in the community to adopt behaviors to support a healthy lifestyle.
Programs at the YMCA are available to help the community of Harrisburg achieve its goals with the help of others. In addition to health coaching and nutrition programs, the Harrisburg Area YMCA branches also offer a variety of chronic disease prevention classes that support cancer patients, those at risk for diabetes, and those with tobacco addictions.
You don’t have to battle your health problems alone – the Y is here to help. We want to see you succeed on your journey to a healthier you. Health programs vary per location, so find out what health programs are available at a branch near you!
