AS REQUIRED BY GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, NET ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH ENDOWMENT FUNDS, INCLUDING FUNDS DESIGNATED BY THE BOARD TO FUNCTION AS ENDOWMENTS, ARE CLASSIFIED AND REPORTED BASED ON THE EXISTENCE OR ABSENCE OF DONOR-IMPOSED OR LEGAL RESTRICTIONS. AS REQUIRED BY GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, THE ASSOCIATION CLASSIFIES AS PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS (A) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF GIFTS DONATED TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT, (B) THE ORIGINAL VALUE OF SUBSEQUENT GIFTS TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT, AND (C) ACCUMULATIONS TO THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DIRECTION OF THE APPLICABLE DONOR GIFT INSTRUMENT AT THE TIME THE ACCUMULATION IS ADDED TO THE FUND. THE REMAINING PORTION OF THE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUND THAT IS NOT CLASSIFIED IN PERMANENTLY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS IS CLASSIFIED AS TEMPORARILY RESTRICTED NET ASSETS UNTIL THOSE AMOUNTS ARE APPROPRIATED FOR EXPENDITURE BY THE ASSOCIATION IN A MANNER CONSISTENT WITH THE STANDARD OF PRUDENCE PRESCRIBED BY STATE LAW. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE UNIFORM PRUDENT MANAGEMENT OF INSTITUTIONAL FUNDS ACT, THE ASSOCIATION CAN CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING FACTORS IN MAKING A DETERMINATION TO APPROPRIATE OR ACCUMULATE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS: -THE DURATION AND PRESERVATION OF THE FUND -THE PURPOSES OF THE ASSOCIATION AND THE DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUND -GENERAL ECONOMIC CONDITIONS -THE POSSIBLE EFFECT OF INFLATION AND DEFLATION -THE EXPECTED TOTAL RETURN FROM INCOME AND THE APPRECIATION OF INVESTMENTS -OTHER RESOURCES OF THE ASSOCIATION -THE INVESTMENT POLICIES OF THE ASSOCIATION. THE ASSOCIATION HAS ADOPTED INVESTMENT AND SPENDING POLICIES FOR ITS ENDOWMENT ASSETS THAT ATTEMPT TO PROVIDE A PREDICTABLE STREAM OF FUNDING FOR ITS PROGRAMS WHILE SEEKING TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF THE ENDOWMENT ASSETS. UNDER THIS POLICY, AS APPROVED BY THE BOARD, THE ASSOCIATION SHALL SEEK TO INVEST THE ENDOWMENT FUNDS IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THE INVESTMENTS WILL PROVIDE A SPENDABLE RETURN CONSISTENT WITH A LONG-TERM GOAL OF PRESERVING THE FUNDS IN REAL TERMS. ACTUAL RETURNS IN ANY GIVEN YEAR MAY VARY FROM THIS AMOUNT. TO SATISFY ITS LONG-TERM RATE-OF-RETURN OBJECTIVES, THE ASSOCIATION'S INVESTMENT STRATEGY FOCUSES ON THE LONG-TERM GROWTH OF PRINCIPAL WITHOUT TAKING UNDUE RISKS. ANNUAL INVESTMENT RETURN TARGETS ARE ACHIEVED THROUGH BOTH CAPITAL APPRECIATION (REALIZED AND UNREALIZED) AND CURRENT YIELD (INTEREST AND DIVIDENDS). THE ASSOCIATION HAS INVESTED IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES AND AN ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT THAT TARGET A DIVERSIFIED ASSET ALLOCATION, PLACING A GREATER EMPHASIS ON EQUITY-BASED INVESTMENTS TO ACHIEVE ITS LONG-TERM RETURN OBJECTIVES. THE ASSOCIATION HAS A POLICY OF APPROPRIATING FOR DISTRIBUTION QUARTERLY, AT ITS DISCRETION, 1% OF THE ENDOWMENT FAIR MARKET VALUE TO SUPPORT OPERATIONS. THE ENDOWMENT FAIR MARKET VALUE FOR DISTRIBUTION PURPOSES IS CALCULATED BASED ON AN AVERAGE OF THE MOST RECENT FOUR QUARTERS. IN ESTABLISHING THIS POLICY, THE ASSOCIATION CONSIDERED THE LONG-TERM EXPECTED RETURN ON ITS ENDOWMENT. THIS IS CONSISTENT WITH THE ASSOCIATION'S OBJECTIVE TO MAINTAIN THE PURCHASING POWER OF ITS ENDOWMENT. FROM TIME TO TIME, THE FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS ASSOCIATED WITH INDIVIDUAL DONOR-RESTRICTED ENDOWMENT FUNDS MAY FALL BELOW THE LEVEL THAT THE DONOR IMPOSED RESTRICTIONS REQUIRE THE ASSOCIATION TO RETAIN AS A FUND OF PERPETUAL DURATION. IN ACCORDANCE WITH GENERALLY ACCEPTED ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES, DEFICIENCIES OF THIS NATURE ARE REPORTED IN UNRESTRICTED NET ASSETS. SUCH DEFICIENCIES AMOUNTED TO $274,583 AND $361,518 AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009 RESPECTIVELY.
PART XI, LINE 8 - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:   NET LOSS ON INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENT -883,357.
PART XII, LINE 2D - OTHER ADJUSTMENTS:   NET LOSS ON INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENT -883,357.

  PART III, LINE 4 (A-C) MISSION STATEMENT: THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS IS AN ASSOCIATION UNITED IN A COMMON GOAL TO STRENGTHEN OUR COMMUNITIES AND TO DEVELOP THE SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY OF ALL PERSONS, REGARDLESS OF MEANS, THROUGH ACTIVITIES GUIDED BY AND BASED UPON OUR CORE VALUES OF CARING, HONESTY, RESPECT AND RESPONSIBILITY. CAUSE STATEMENT: THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS WILL STRENGTHEN THE FOUNDATIONS OF COMMUNITY THROUGH PROGRAMS AND SERVICES THAT SUPPORT YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, HEALTHY LIVING, AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. DIVERSITY & INCLUSION VISION STATEMENT: THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS ENSURES THAT ALL PEOPLE ARE WELCOMED AND FULLY ENGAGED IN THE ORGANIZATION BY NURTURING AND SUPPORTING AN ENVIRONMENT THAT REFLECTS, CELEBRATES AND LEARNS FROM THE RICH DIVERSITY OF OUR SHARED GLOBAL COMMUNITY. STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE: THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS IS PART OF A WORLDWIDE MOVEMENT THAT HAS A RICH HISTORY OF BUILDING BRIDGES BETWEEN COMMUNITIES, IS RESPONSIVE TO ITS CHANGING ENVIRONMENT, EVOKES A SENSE OF BELONGING, AND POSITIVELY IMPACTS THE LIVES OF INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES. ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION: THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS PROVIDES MISSION DRIVEN PROGRAMS FOR ALL PEOPLE THAT STRENGTHEN THEIR SPIRITUAL, MENTAL AND PHYSICAL WELL-BEING. THE YMCA IS COMMITTED TO INSTILLING ITS CORE VALUES OF CARING, HONESTY, RESPECT AND RESPONSIBILITY. PARTICULAR EMPHASIS IS PLACED ON STRENGTHENING THE FAMILY AND BUILDING POSITIVE VALUES IN YOUTH. WE COLLABORATE WITH MORE THAN 125 OTHER COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS AND BUSINESSES TO MEET THE NEEDS OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES THROUGHOUT THE 41 COMMUNITIES WE SERVE. THE YMCA BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STAFF REPRESENT A DIVERSE CROSS SECTION OF OUR MEMBERSHIP AND COMMUNITY. YMCA HISTORY: ESTABLISHED IN 1864, THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS HAS BEEN HEADQUARTERED SINCE 1920 AT OUR CENTRAL COMMUNITY BRANCH AT 766 MAIN STREET IN WORCESTER, MASSACHUSETTS. IN RECENT DECADES, OUR ASSOCIATION HAS BECOME A METROPOLITAN YMCA SERVING 41 TOWNS THROUGH THREE BRANCHES: THE CENTRAL COMMUNITY BRANCH LOCATED IN DOWNTOWN WORCESTER, THE GREENDALE FAMILY BRANCH IN NORTH WORCESTER, AND THE BOROUGHS FAMILY BRANCH IN WESTBOROUGH. IN ADDITION TO THESE FULL-SERVICE BRANCHES, THE YMCA HAS OFFERED SUMMER CAMP PROGRAMS AT CAMP BLANCHARD IN SUTTON SINCE THE 1920S, WHILE CAMP HARRINGTON IN BOYLSTON WAS OPENED IN THE 1950S. WITH OUR MANY SATELLITE OPERATIONS, COLLABORATIONS, AND PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS WITH AREA SCHOOL DEPARTMENTS, CITY AND TOWN OFFICIALS, POLICE DEPARTMENTS, LIBRARIES AND AREA HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICE AGENCIES, WE NOW REACH OUT TO APPROXIMATELY 58,000 CHILDREN, TEENS, ADULTS AND SENIORS IN A CONTINUING COMMITMENT TO STRENGTHEN THE FOUNDATIONS OF COMMUNITY. NATIONAL REBRANDING INITIATIVE: IN JULY 2010, THE YMCA OF THE USA UNVEILED THE NATIONAL BRAND REVITALIZATION FOR YMCAS. THIS COMPREHENSIVE PLAN SUPPORTS THE YMCA IN ARTICULATING WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE STAND FOR. WE HAVE TAKEN SEVERAL STEPS IN WORKING WITH STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS TO UNDERSTAND THE NEW STRATEGIES WITHIN THE PLAN AND INTEGRATE THE "VOICE AND OUR PROMISE" TO STRENGTHEN THE FOUNDATIONS OF COMMUNITY THROUGH YOUTH DEVELOPMENT, HEALTHY LIVING AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN OUR COMMUNICATIONS AT ALL LEVELS. OUR EFFORTS HAVE INCREASED OUR FOCUS, OUR OUTCOMES ARE MORE CLEAR AND IMPACTFUL - AND WE HAVE ENGAGED MEMBERS, DONORS AND COMMUNITY SUPPORTERS IN A RENEWED WAY. WE CONTINUE TO REFINE OUR MESSAGE TO ENSURE IT IS CLEAR, CREDIBLE AND COMPELLING. OUR PROMISE: WE ARE A POWERFUL ASSOCIATION OF MEN, WOMEN AND CHILDREN JOINED TOGETHER BY A SHARED COMMITMENT TO NURTURING THE POTENTIAL OF OUR YOUTH, PROMOTING HEALTHY LIVING AND FOSTERING A SENSE OF SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. WE BELIEVE THAT LASTING PERSONAL AND SOCIAL CHANGE CAN ONLY COME ABOUT WHEN WE ALL WORK TOGETHER TO INVEST IN OUR CHILDREN, OUR HEALTH AND OUR NEIGHBORS. THAT'S WHY, AT THE YMCA, STRENGTHENING COMMUNITIES IS OUR CAUSE. EVERYDAY, WE WORK SIDE-BY-SIDE WITH OUR NEIGHBORS TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE, REGARDLESS OF AGE, INCOME OR BACKGROUND, HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN, GROW AND THRIVE. OUR IMPACT: THE YMCA IS, AND ALWAYS WILL BE, DEDICATED TO BUILDING HEALTHY, CONFIDENT, CONNECTED AND SECURE CHILDREN, ADULTS, FAMILIES AND COMMUNITIES. EVERYDAY OUR IMPACT IS FELT WHEN AN INDIVIDUAL MAKES A HEALTHY CHOICE, WHEN A MENTOR INSPIRES A CHILD AND WHEN THE COMMUNITY COMES TOGETHER FOR THE COMMON GOOD. IN TODAY'S ENVIRONMENT, WE MUST DEMONSTRATE OUR IMPACT. THAT'S WHY WE HAVE GROUPED OUR PROGRAMS AND SERVICES INTO THREE AREAS OF FOCUS: YOUTH DEVELOPMENT - NURTURING THE POTENTIAL OF EVERY CHILD: FOR MANY CHILDREN, THE YMCA IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THEIR DAY - ENSURING THAT THEY ARE SAFE AND PARTICIPATING IN QUALITY PROGRAMMING SO ONE OR MORE PARENTS CAN WORK. AT THE YMCA, CHILDREN CHOOSE FROM A HOST OF RECREATIONAL, PHYSICAL AND EDUCATIONAL ACTIVITIES. EACH NURTURES CHARACTER, CREATIVITY, COGNITIVE AND CIVIC LEARNING, AND LEADERSHIP. EXAMPLES OF OTHER PROGRAMS INCLUDE: EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION - THE YMCA PROVIDES EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION FOR INFANT, TODDLER, AND PRESCHOOL AGED CHILDREN OF WORKING PARENTS, SINGLE PARENTS, TEEN PARENTS OR PARENTS IN JOB-TRAINING PROGRAMS. THE CHILDREN RANGE IN AGE FROM SIX WEEKS TO FIVE YEARS. EACH YEAR, THE EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION PROGRAM SERVES APPROXIMATELY 150 CHILDREN AT FOUR LOCATIONS. THESE PROGRAMS SERVE AN IMPORTANT ROLE IN ENSURING CHILDREN LEARN, THRIVE AND GROW AND ARE DEVELOPMENTALLY READY TO ENTER KINDERGARTEN. SCHOOL'S OUT - SCHOOL'S OUT IS A FULL-SERVICE AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM THAT FOCUSES ON THE INDIVIDUAL CHILD, FOSTERING PHYSICAL, INTELLECTUAL, EMOTIONAL AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT IN A SAFE, SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT. THE PROGRAM OFFERS ENGAGING, ENRICHING, AND DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES FOR MORE THAN 400 DIFFERENT CHILDREN IN KINDERGARTEN THROUGH SIXTH GRADE DURING OUT OF SCHOOL TIME. HOMEWORK ASSISTANCE IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF THE DAILY ACTIVITIES TO ENSURE THAT EVERY CHILD IS MOTIVATED TO LEARN AND BE SUCCESSFUL IN SCHOOL. AT OUR CENTRAL COMMUNITY BRANCH, LITERACY IS THE FOCUS IN ALL ASPECTS OF THE PROGRAM. THIS UNIQUE FEATURE BUILDS ESSENTIAL READING AND WRITING COMPETENCIES IN CHILDREN, RANGING FROM KINDERGARTENERS THROUGH SIXTH GRADERS. MOST EVIDENT IN HOMEWORK SUPPORT, ATTENTION TO LITERACY DEVELOPMENT AND ENHANCEMENT IS CREATIVELY INFUSED INTO OTHER AREAS OF PROGRAMMING - FROM COOKING TO ARTS AND HUMANITIES AND FITNESS INITIATIVES. ADDITIONALLY, WE ARE EXTREMELY PROUD OF THE WORK THAT HAS BEEN ACCOMPLISHED TO MEET THE COMMUNITY NEEDS IN MARLBOROUGH RELATIVE TO AFTERSCHOOL CARE FOR WORKING FAMILIES. IN ITS SECOND YEAR, THE PROGRAM SERVES OVER 100 CHILDREN PER DAY. ADDITIONALLY, WE HAVE COLLABORATED WITH THE SHREWSBURY PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO IMPLEMENT AN AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAM AT THE BOROUGHS FAMILY BRANCH. SUMMER CAMP - YMCA SUMMER CAMPS ARE STRONG. CAMP BLANCHARD IN SUTTON SERVES CLOSE TO 150 CHILDREN FROM 6- TO 13-YEARS-OLD EACH DAY. NEARLY 80% OF THE CAMPERS RECEIVE STATE SUBSIDIES OR YMCA SCHOLARSHIPS. IN ADDITION, THE CENTRAL COMMUNITY BRANCH PARTNERS WITH THE WORCESTER HOUSING AUTHORITY WHICH SPONSORS 40 CAMPERS FROM THE GREAT BROOK VALLEY AND LAKESIDE HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS FOR SIX WEEKS OVER THE SUMMER. CAMP HARRINGTON IN BOYLSTON SERVES UP TO 200 CHILDREN PER DAY - FROM KINDERGARTENERS THROUGH SEVENTH GRADERS - INCLUDING MORE THAN 65 PARTICIPANTS IN ITS INCLUSION PROGRAM, WHICH FULLY INTEGRATES CHILDREN WITH MODERATE SPECIAL NEEDS INTO DAILY CAMP LIFE. MORE THAN 40 TEENAGERS TAKE PART IN CAMP HARRINGTON'S LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND LEADER-IN-TRAINING PROGRAMS, WHICH PREPARE TEENAGERS TO BECOME CAMP COUNSELORS. WE ALSO RUN SUMMER CAMPS AT EACH OF THE BRANCHES ALONG WITH A CAMP AT LAKESIDE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IN COLLABORATION WITH WORCESTER HOUSING AUTHORITY. HEALTHY LIVING - IMPROVING THE NATION'S HEALTH AND WELL-BEING: THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS IS PART OF AN EXCITING INITIATIVE KNOWN AS HEALTH INNOVATION - A NATIONAL RESPONSE TO THE GROWING OBESITY CRISIS. THE YMCA IS REDEFINING ITSELF AND ENGAGING COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY TO BETTER SUPPORT AMERICANS OF ALL AGES WHO ARE STRUGGLING TO ACHIEVE AND MAINTAIN WELL-BEING OF SPIRIT, MIND AND BODY. AS A YMCA DEDICATED TO HEALTHY LIVING FOR ITS MEMBERS, WE HAVE PLUNGED INTO AND SUSTAINED A WHOLE NEW LEVEL OF INTENSIVE HEALTH AND WELLNESS WORK: FROM STAFF-DRIVEN TO MEMBER-FOCUSED WITH ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE AND INNOVATIVE PROGRAMS; ORGANIZATIONALLY, OUR YMCA IS IMPLEMENTING AND EVALUATING CUTTING EDGE SERVICES TO TRULY SUPPORT PEOPLE OF ALL AGES IN THEIR PURSUIT OF HEALTH. AT A BRANCH LEVEL, NATIONAL RESOURCES AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE HAS TRANSLATED INTO PROGRAM EXPERIMENTATION AND IMPROVEMENT REGARDING OUR DIFFERENT YOUTH WELLNESS INITIATIVES.
    WE HAVE INTEGRATED THE FOOD & FUN CURRICULUM, A CURRICULUM CREATED BY THE HARVARD SCHOOL OF PUBLIC HEALTH, DESIGNED TO HELP YMCAS INTEGRATE HEALTHY SNACKS, ACTIVE GAMES AND CREATIVE LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES INTO AFTERSCHOOL PROGRAMS. OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS, WE HAVE BUILT CAPACTITY AND HAVE BEEN ABLE TO EXPERIMENT WITH DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF PROGRAM IMPLEMENTATION, ALL WITH THE GOAL TO BETTER UNDERSTAND OUR CHILDREN AND FAMILIES AND REACH THEM IN NEW AND MORE MEANINGFUL WAYS. AND FINALLY, WE HAVE TRANFORMED OUR VENDING MACHINE OFFERINGS TO BETTER SUPPORT MEMBERS AND PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS CHOICE OF HEALTHY SNACKS. EXAMPLES OF INNOVATIVE HEALTHY LIVING INITIATIVES INCLUDE: "Y-FIT": THIS COLLABORATIVE PROGRAM WITH EMMANUEL BAPTIST CHURCH (AS WELL AS OTHER LOCAL CHURCHES) PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH AND WELLNESS PROGRAM DESIGNED TO MEET THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF YOUNG PEOPLE. BY OFFERING A DIVERSE MENU OF PHYSICAL FITNESS, NUTRITION AND OTHER WELLNESS OPPORTUNITIES AT OUR CENTRAL COMMUNITY BRANCH, THE YMCA WORKS WITH APPROXIMATELY 100 PARTICIPANTS, IN THE YOUTH WELLNESS CENTER (LOCATED IN THE BRANCH'S TEEN ZONE) WHO ENGAGE IN AND TRACK ACTIVITIES TO IMPROVE THEIR HEALTH. Y-FIT CONTINUES TO SEE OUTSTANDING RETENTION IN THE PROGRAM AND A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF TEENS NOT ONLY PARTICIPATE IN Y-FIT, BUT JOIN OTHER YMCA TEEN PROGRAMS. "SHORE PARK COLLABORATION": THE YMCA IS EXCITED TO CONTINUE ITS COLLABORATION WITH THE CITY OF WORCESTER AND BANCROFT SCHOOL IN AN EFFORT TO PROVIDE SAFE ACCESS TO SHORE PARK'S WATERFRONT. IN ADDITION, SHORE PARK IS ONE OF THE CITY'S FREE LUNCH PROGRAM SITES WHICH OFFER NUTRITIOUS MEALS TO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 18. LOCAL FAMILIES HAVE A SAFE AND FUN PLACE TO GATHER, COOL OFF AND ENJOY THE SUMMER MONTHS. THE YMCA IS PROVIDING HIGH QUALITY, CERTIFIED STAFF TO ENSURE THE SAFETY AND WELLNESS OF THE HUNDREDS OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES EACH SUMMER THAT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS WONDERFUL COMMUNITY ASSET. "GREENDALE FAMILY LOCATION YOUTH & FAMILY WELLNESS CENTER": THIS SPECIALIZED WELLNESS CENTER IS GEARED FOR CHILDREN (AGES 7 TO 12) AND THEIR FAMILIES TO SUPPORT THEIR OVERALL PURSUIT OF HEALTHY LIVING. THIS FAMILY-FRIENDLY ENVIRONMENT PROVIDES AN OPPORTUNITY TO EDUCATE FAMILIES ON HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY INTEGRATE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY INTO THEIR LIVES. THIS TARGETED SPACE IS THE PERFECT PLACE FOR FAMILIES TO RECONNECT AND GET MOVING! IN ADDITION, COMMUNITY-BASED ORGANIZATIONS ALSO USE THE CENTER FOR CLASSES AND DIFFERENT INSTRUCTIONAL WORKSHOPS. "SALSA, SABOR Y SALUD": THIS PROGRAM WAS DEVELOPED BY THE NATIONAL LATINO CHILDREN'S INSTITUTE TO IMPROVE AWARENESS OF HABITS LEADING TO BETTER NUTRITION AND INCREASED PHYSICAL ACTIVITY FOR LATINO FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN 12 AND YOUNGER. FAMILIES PARTICIPATE ACTIVELY IN A SERIES OF EIGHT SESSIONS THAT REINFORCE THE IMPORTANCE OF ACHIEVING "ENERGY BALANCE" THROUGH HEALTHIER FOOD CHOICES AND INCREASED LEVELS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY. THIS PAST YEAR, OVER 100 FAMILIES HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THE PROGRAM, AND HAVE IDENTIFIED THE NECESSARY HABITS TO SUPPORTING THEIR OVERALL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING. "LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA": IN SEPTEMBER 2007, YMCA OF THE USA AND LANCE ARMSTRONG'S FOUNDATION (LIVESTRONG) ANNOUNCED A MULTI-YEAR PARTNERSHIP TO JOINTLY DEVELOP LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA, A PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND WELL-BEING PROGRAM FOR ADULT CANCER SURVIVORS. THROUGH A REQUEST FOR RESPONSE (RFR) PROCESS FOLLOWED BY THE SELECTION OF YMCAS DECIDED BY A NATIONAL VOTING PROCESS, THE YMCA OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS LED A COHORT OF SEVEN OTHER YMCAS IN MASSACHUSETTS AND CONNECTICUT. WE ARE PROUD TO HAVE RECEIVED THE MOST VOTES IN THE COUNTRY, THEREBY EARNING THE PRIVILEGE OF IMPLEMENTING THE PROGRAM IN WORCESTER (AS WELL AS OTHER AREAS DEFINED BY THE MEMBERS OF THE COHORT). IN 2011 WE BEGAN AN EXTENSIVE TRAINING PROGRAM AND HAVE BEGUN TO OFFER THE PROGRAM IN FISCAL YEAR 2012. ANY CANCER SURVIVOR, WHO HAS BEEN CLEARED BY A PHYSICIAN, IS WELCOME TO PARTICIPATE. LIVESTRONG AT THE YMCA HELPS PEOPLE AFFECTED BY CANCER REACH THEIR HOLISTIC HEALTH GOALS. THIS RESEARCH-BASED PROGRAM OFFERS THOSE LIVING WITH, THROUGH AND BEYOND CANCER A SAFE, EMPOWERING ENVIRONMENT TO PARTICIPATE IN ACTIVITIES FOCUSED ON STRENGTHENING THE WHOLE PERSON. PARTICIPANTS WORK WITH OUR SPECIALLY TRAINED Y STAFF TO ACHIEVE GOALS SUCH AS BUILDING MUSCLE MASS AND STRENGTH; INCREASING FLEXIBILITY AND ENDURANCE; AND IMPROVING CONFIDENCE AND SELF-ESTEEM. OF COURSE, EVERY CONSIDERATION IS TAKEN TO ENSURE THAT THE PROGRAM IS APPROPRIATE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL PARTICIPANT: WE CONDUCT AN EXTENSIVE INTAKE SESSION, SECURE MEDICAL CLEARANCE FROM THE PARTICIPANT'S PHYSICIAN AND PERFORM A HEALTH SCREENING. IN ADDITION TO PHYSICAL BENEFITS, THE PROGRAM ALSO FOCUSES ON THE EMOTIONAL WELL-BEING OF SURVIVORS AND THEIR FAMILIES BY PROVIDING A SUPPORTIVE "COMMUNITY" WHERE PEOPLE IMPACTED BY CANCER CAN CONNECT DURING TREATMENT AND BEYOND. SEVERAL YMCA PROGRAMS ARE DESIGNED TO ENHANCE THE HEALTH AND WELL-BEING OF YOUNGER MEMBERS OF OUR COMMUNITY. IN PARTICULAR, WE ARE COMMITTED TO ADDRESSING THE OBESITY EPIDEMIC THAT HAS BEEN SPREADING ACROSS THE COUNTRY. IT IS ESTIMATED THAT OVER 30% OF CHILDREN IN THE WORCESTER PUBLIC SCHOOLS ARE OBESE OR OVERWEIGHT AND THE OBESITY RATES HAVE INCREASED AMONG CHILDREN OF ALL RACIAL AND ETHNIC GROUPS. DISPROPORTIONATE OBESITY RATES HAVE BEEN NOTED IN LOW INCOME AND RACIALLY DIVERSE POPULATIONS, PARTICULARLY AMONG LATINO AND BLACK YOUTH. SEVERAL OTHER YOUTH AND TEEN PROGRAMS, SUCH AS KIDS ON THE MOVE, GIRLS ON THE GO, BOYS ON THE GO AND Y-FIT TEACH CRITICAL NUTRITION AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY SKILLS TO CHILDREN IN OUR COMMUNITY. THESE PROGRAMS PROVIDE YOUNG PEOPLE WITH EDUCATION AND SKILLS DEVELOPMENT IN A SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT THAT EMPOWERS GROWTH, POSITIVE EXPERIENCES AND SUCCESS IN MANY FACETS OF THEIR LIVES. PARTICIPANTS DEVELOP SKILLS AND RESOURCES TO MANAGE AND SUSTAIN HEALTHY LIFE CHOICES. THE POTENTIAL LONG-TERM BENEFITS INCLUDE REDUCED HEALTH CARE COSTS, INCREASED LIFE EXPECTANCY WITH DECREASED CHRONIC DISEASE, BUILDING BLOCKS TO INFORMED HEALTHY DECISION MAKING AND INDEPENDENCE. SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY: GIVING BACK AND PROVIDING SUPPORT TO OUR NEIGHBORS THROUGH A VARIETY OF TEEN AND COMMUNITY-BASED INITIATIVES. SEVERAL EXAMPLES INCLUDE: "SPARTACUS": THE SPARTACUS PROGRAM STRIVES TO REDUCE THE NUMBER OF REPEAT JUVENILE OFFENDERS, WHILE INSTILLING A SENSE OF COMMUNITY IN ALL PARTICIPANTS BY ENCOURAGING THEM TO MAKE THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS SAFER FOR EVERYONE AND TO SHOW THEM THAT THEY CAN CHOOSE A MORE POSITIVE COURSE IN LIFE. THE TEN-WEEK PROGRAM, SERVING 80 STUDENTS ANNUALLY, INCORPORATES ADVENTURE-BASED ACTIVITIES, "BOOT CAMP" TYPE PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES, ACADEMIC HELP, COMMUNITY SERVICE, LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND, UPON COMPLETION OF THE PROGRAM, A YMCA MEMBERSHIP. "MINORITY ACHIEVERS PROGRAM": THE MINORITY ACHIEVERS PROGRAM IS DESIGNED TO CREATE A DIVERSE, INCLUSIVE, AND CHALLENGING ENVIRONMENT FOR MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS TO HELP DEVELOP EDUCATED, COMMITTED, AND DIVERSE LEADERS OF TOMORROW.

THIS ACADEMIC SUPPORT INITIATIVE HELPS PRIMARILY MINORITY STUDENTS IMPROVE THEIR ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT TO PREPARE THEM FOR MATRICULATION TO COLLEGE. THROUGH COLLABORATIONS WITH LOCAL COLLEGES, YOUTH SERVICE AGENCIES, BUSINESSES AND OTHER PARTNERS, THE MINORITY ACHIEVERS PROGRAM PROVIDES FINANCIAL AND COLLEGE-READINESS RESOURCES TO ENSURE ACCESS FOR LOW-INCOME AND MINORITY STUDENTS TO COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES.
