Since the founding, YMCAs have provided health and fitness programs as an integral part of our mission as we strive to build people in spirit, mind, and body. Today, YMCAs are the nation's largest providers of health and wellness programs. All are welcome at the neighborhood YMCA, regardless of age, physical ability or income.

The YMCA of Greater Des Moines is working to combat rising levels of chronic disease and promote healthy living in our community via the YMCA Healthy Living Center, a comprehensive partnership with Mercy Medical Center aimed at implementing evidence-based programming and community solutions to overcome the nation's growing health challenge.
