June is Seniors Month. This year, the Government of Ontario encourages us all to “Let’s Get Moving”, and we’re proud to support that mission.

2026 also marks the 60th anniversary of Ontario’s Seniors Active Living Centres (SALC), helping older adults stay active, connected, and engaged in their communities.

At the YMCA of Three Rivers, we’re proud that our A.R. Kaufman Family YMCA is a designated SALC. Through programs like Chat & Play Café, Arts & Crafts, Rock Steady Boxing, and our Neuro Fit program, we create a welcoming space where seniors can stay active, social, and supported.

Across all of our facilities, we are passionate about helping seniors thrive, both inside and out.

This Pride Month, we celebrate the strength and brilliance of YMCA staff, volunteers, members, participants, donors, and partners who are part of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.

The YMCA of Three Rivers continues to be committed to creating welcoming, inclusive spaces where everyone feels safe, valued, and supported to be their authentic selves.

While progress has been made, there is still important work ahead, and we remain dedicated to advancing equity, belonging, and well-being for all.

Access changes everything. When barriers are removed, people feel seen, valued, and ready to thrive.

At the YMCA of Three Rivers, accessibility is a priority, from inclusive spaces and programs to financial assistance and community supports that open doors for all.

National AccessAbility Week is a reminder that Canada is stronger and more accessible when inclusion is built through everyday actions, shared spaces, and a commitment to belonging for all.

Together, let’s strive to be part of creating moments where everyone can participate,
connect, and shine.
