About this Petition Petition Letter

The YMCA is set to close its downtown Albany branch while it builds new branches all over the Capital District. Nearly 3,000 people depend on the downtown Y for its variety of services, and closing it will represent an abandonment of the YMCA's mission in one of its areas of greatest need.
