The conflict in Ukraine is devastating to watch unfold and we stand with our communities and young people near and far who continue to do all they can to care about our people, customers, communities, and young people, in particular.

Thanks to @YMCAWA team for an excellent tour of all things Y WA! It was great to learn about Y WA’s new ELC learning model; to see youth programs in action at the Base and HQ, and to attend the Y WA board strategy day.

Another fab early learning centre for the Y in WA, where parents will love the way their children will grow. Brabham Early Learning Centre echonewspaper.com.au/brabham…
Today and every day at the Y we stand for equality. Individually, we're all responsible for our own thoughts and actions - all day, every day. We can break the bias in our communities. We can break the bias in our workplaces. We can break the bias in our Ys.
