Character Development
/August/07
Service
to the community and to others provides youth members
a way to learn more about the YMCA’s core values of
caring, honesty, respect and responsibility and act
on them. Because the Civic Metric directs them toward
service that interests and inspires them, young
people will be more motivated and likely to believe
in and to act on positive values and behave
accordingly.
