The Riverdale Y Mission & Values

Our Mission:

Riverdale Y enriches lives by cultivating universally-shared values central to Jewish life, through educational, cultural, wellness, and service programs for all.

Our Values:

We build and strengthen community.

We create a space of belonging, where everyone feels respected and appreciated for who they are.

We have a responsibility to care for one another, in our local community and in our world.

We nurture our minds, bodies and souls.

We are committed to lifelong learning and growth.

Make your life here.

Riverdale Y is created around you, your family, your friends, and the friends you haven’t met yet. We’re the century-old organization devoted to the well-being of the whole community, in all our diversity. At The Riverdale Y, we work with and for our members of every age and stage. We’ve got swim classes for six-month-olds and hot-lunch socials for seniors. In between, you’ll find excellence at every turn, in our ​early childhood center​, on the basketball court, on stage, and in the stained glass studio. Learn how to be a lifeguard, an actor, a mensch.

Whatever your passion, your community convenes right here.
