Our Vision

YMCA Dublin believes that everyone should have the opportunity to belong to healthy, confident,
secure & connected communities.

A Healthy Community is a supportive environment where physical, emotional and mental

well-being is prioritised, and is based on accessible services, active living, and strong social
connections.

A Confident Community is an optimistic environment where individuals thrive, take

initiative, and collectively embrace challenges, and is based on active engagement,
collective contributions, and mutual support.

A Secure Community is a resilient environment where individuals feel safe, fostering peace

of mind and well-being, and is based upon strong community bonds, trust, and shared
responsibility.

A Connected Community is a cohesive environment where members actively engage,

collaborate, and support one another, and is based on strong social bonds, open
communication, and shared values.

Our Core Principles

Play-inspired - an approach to learning and development that emphasises the importance of

play in the growth of, not only children and young people, but also families and communities.

Strengths-based - an approach to community development that focuses on identifying and

harnessing the existing strengths, resources, and potential within a community to foster
sustainable growth and promote positive change.

Trauma-informed - an approach to working with people that prioritises understanding and

addressing the impact of trauma.

We believe everyone should have the opportunity to belong to healthy, confident, connected and secure communities
