We all have mental health 🧠 On #WorldMentalHealthDay, the Alliance invites you to learn more about how our Northern New England YMCAs support mental health – whether it’s through fostering connections among our community members, creating a sense of belonging for all, building strong relationships, helping kids and adults develop coping skills, providing safe spaces for everyone or simply demonstrating empathy and compassion in all interactions - we are committed to the mental health and wellbeing of our communities. Did you know❓ In 2023, the Alliance helped train 300 YMCA staff in Youth Mental Health First Aid thanks to our partnership with Sweetser. #ForABetterUs

Sanford-Springvale YMCA Pre-K teacher, Liz Reynolds, got a once-in-a-lifetime call — a FaceTime with President Joe Biden himself! The special moment came as President Biden thanked her and teachers across the nation for their hard work and dedication, as part of the The White House's Investing in America Content Series. The Sanford-Springvale YMCA recently received a $250,000 grant to expand their childcare center with American Rescue Plan funds. The Y was able to add three new classrooms to their childcare center, allowing care for an additional 30 children and serve families with children as young as six weeks old.
