The Y-Strong program provides a Y family membership for participants who have achieved a period of successful sobriety. The Y membership gives them an outlet to work on their own health and the health of their family unit.
The Akron Area YMCA works with Turning Point Court, Family Reunification Court, Hope Court, Valor Court, Akron Recovery Court, and Barberton Municipal Drug Court, to offer the Y-Strong program to those individuals who have reached a certain level of success, as determined by the various judges within those courts.
As a non-profit organization, the Akron Area Y, is able to support this program through the donations collected through the Annual Campaign.
