Y-Assist / Financial Assistance 
The YMCA helps members of our community afford memberships and programs through our financial assistance program, Y-Assist. Whatever your financial situation, we will do our best to work with you to ensure that you and your family can participate in the Y's values-based programs. Awarded amounts last two years from the date granted. Members must reapply for Y-Assist at least one month before expiration. Failure to reapply will result in automatic rate adjustment to standard dues. Refunds will not be issued for lapsed assistance. Dues will auto adjust to standard rates after two years.

To make any changes to your YMCA membership, such as an add-on/delete or payment update, the primary member on the account must contact us at membership@ymcasuperiorcal.org fourteen days prior to the last day of the month. Refunds will not be issued.
