Alignment with community needs: PB Report

"Our Mission and our programs align quite well with the DMC objectives," said Patrick Keane, a volunteer member of the local YMCA board of directors and the board chairman since 2014. "The YMCA provides the infrastructure for the community with special emphasis on having our doors open for all with the Open Doors Scholarship program and improved healthy living habits that are incorporated in our programs for youth and families."

Alignment with community needs: PB Report

 

"Our Mission and our programs align quite well with the DMC objectives," said Patrick Keane, a volunteer member of the local YMCA board of directors and the board chairman since 2014. "The YMCA provides the infrastructure for the community with special emphasis on having our doors open for all with the Open Doors Scholarship program and improved healthy living habits that are incorporated in our programs for youth and families."

The YMCA has operated in its location for more than 50 years and, Keane said, loves it. He said the location and partnership with city parks are critical to Summer Day Camps, state licensed Y-Tots preschool and youth sports.

The building is showing its age, though, and they are currently assessing the facility. The board completed a community needs assessment and a facility analysis of the present facility, and later this month, it will conduct a market study analysis. Once the results are in, it will create plans moving forward. At the organization's annual meeting presentation on March 29, the board will talk more about what lies ahead for the organization.

About Beam

Community Beam (dmcbeam.org) is a registry of private and public resources (organizations, projects, initiatives, programs) that underpin economic and social developments of greater Rochester:

  • For the commercial sector, we tend to register startup activities (new companies and new commercial projects) that bring diversification and high-impact opportunities to the area.
  • For the non-profit sector, we wish to shine light on all the organizations and services that otherwise labor under relative obscurity.
  • Our hope is that dmcbeam.org will encourage cross-sector collaborations and creative solutions.

While there are a number of registries in the community, dmcbeam.org's  distinct value is to pilot a database with a data structure and categorizations that answer the questions such as: What organizations or projects/programs in our community that have purported relevance with some of the over-arching focuses put forward by initiatives such as DMC, J2G and Health Improvements?

This database could be used as one of the ways to explore the capacities of the community. If you are someone on an exploratory journey to learn about the greater Rochester community. dmcbeam.org could be an interesting first step.
