The Siskey YMCA Hemby Center is located on a beautiful 21-acre site in South Charlotte. Our goal is to provide quality programming while instilling core values that help children grow physically, mentally, socially and spiritually, so that they may achieve their greatest God-given potential.

 

In addition, to providing a quality program for your child, the Afterschool Program has  well-trained staff that are focused on meeting the needs of individual participants, committed to serving as excellent role models for the community and will help to establish an atmosphere where parents can be secure and confident about the place their child grows.
 
Registration begins in May and continues throughout the school year. Children are picked up at selected schools and transported to our Hemby Activity Center.

Inclusion Afterschool Program for Children with Autism:
The Inclusion Based Afterschool Program was developed in 2008 through the collaboration of YMCA of Greater Charlotte, the Autism Foundation of the Carolinas, and the Autism Society of North Carolina to provide children with autism many benefits, including inclusion, socialization, communication and life skills.  At the time, there were no other Afterschool programs that served children who were mild to moderate on the autism spectrum.  The intent of these three organizations in designing this program was to provide yet another way parents could help their children flourish, learn and continue to move along the spectrum toward a more independent, productive life.

The pilot program seeks to provide a balance of educational support and recreational activities for each child, while providing a safe, nurturing and enriching environment to meet each child’s unique needs. A ratio of one counselor to every three children enables this Afterschool program to offer a tailored curriculum for each child.  The focus of the program is to enhance independent functional living skills and self management skills by presenting opportunities for socialization, communication and self-directed choice in a relaxing and fun environment.
