LEO’S STORY OF IMPACT

Leo

For Leo, the Schottland Family YMCA is more than just a gym—it’s a place where everyone, no matter their ability or circumstance, can stay active and connected.

Whether you’re recovering from an injury or illness, learning something new, looking for the right equipment to meet your needs, or just seeking a welcoming space to belong, the Y is here for you. From adaptive fitness programs to financial assistance, the Y is committed to ensuring that no one is left behind.

"I enjoy the community aspects here and it's got a little bit of everything and something for everyone. It's great here because it's accessible. There's all sorts of machines you can use, so if you have any type of injury, there's something for you to work on." — Leo, Schottland Family YMCA
