What is the YMCA Global Teens Travel Program?

YMCA Global Teens is a youth program which challenges teens to discover the world by meeting other people, participating in service to another community, and learning about different cultures in order to become world citizens who give back to their own community.

The purpose of our Global Teens Program is to challenge each participant to develop a stronger sense of self-confidence, independence, and cooperation, as well as to deepen his/her appreciation for the diversity and interdependence among the world's people. The YMCA Global Teens Travel Program is not just an opportunity to travel, but an opportunity for leadership development, personal growth, new cultural experiences and increased international understanding.
