Berkshire Family YMCA

The YMCA x ROOTS Teen Center collaboration supports local youth by providing a welcoming, inclusive space during afterschool Drop-In hours every Monday and Wednesday from 2:30 to 7:00 PM. Volunteers play a key role in creating a safe, affirming environment where teens can relax, connect, and explore their interests. Through a Positive Youth Development approach, volunteers help uplift young people by recognizing their strengths, listening without judgment, and fostering community. ROOTS serves teens across Northern Berkshire County and centers youth voice in everything we do.
