About the Britton YMCA

Finding safe, positive places for teens in Montgomery isn’t always easy, and every parent wants their child to have mentors who believe in them. The Britton YMCA on South Lawrence Street is a hub for youth and teen programs where young people build leadership skills, serve their community, and discover what they’re capable of. From Y Achievers to Youth in Government, our teens don’t just join programs. They lead them.

Featured Programs

Empowering Youth Through Leadership & Service

The Britton YMCA in Montgomery is dedicated to empowering youth and teens to grow, lead, and succeed. We offer a variety of impactful programs and events, including the Jimmy Hitchcock Award, Person of the Year, Achievers, Gear Up, and the Conference on National Affairs. Our Youth in Government program and Christian Values Conference provide leadership opportunities, while the MLK Jr. Day of Service fosters community engagement. All these initiatives are led by our youth, helping them develop confidence, leadership skills, and a strong sense of social responsibility.

Britton YMCA Staff

At the Y, we believe early-life values and skills are key to success. Our programs help children and teens develop positive behaviors, learn core values, and explore their talents. By nurturing their potential, we empower them to become confident kids today and responsible, engaged adults tomorrow, focusing on growth, development, and self-discovery to help youth thrive in all aspects of life.
