Youth Embracing Today’s Youth” also known as Y.E.T.Y. is a safe, supervised Center providing young people with programs that will encourage the development of healthy mind, body and spirit. In today’s demanding and fast-paced society, everyone needs time to “re-create” their own personal sense of well-being. Health studies have lauded the immeasurable physical and psychological benefits that resul
t from participating in recreational activities in the form of fitness, organized sports, active living, park activities or arts and culture Recreation and physical activity are both key factors in the health and well-being of people representing every age group in a community. Senior citizens, with increased physical needs, will benefit from being able to stay active and socialize with their peers, families and friends. In addition, our health care institutions will benefit from the reduced illness and debilitation, thereby alleviating some of the strain on health care and social service systems. It is interesting to note, that while researching other similar facilities it was determined that seniors are among the most active user groups of leisure and recreation complexes. Our children and grandchildren learn and develop motor skills, social skills and creativity through play. Our teenagers will develop healthy self-esteem by being involved in sports and arts activities. The main goal of YETY is to keep the youth of Windsor-Essex off the streets and engaged by providing a safe establishment that offers diverse activities and volunteer work opportunities.
