We promote the well-being of Wilton's students
by empowering youth, parents and community.

Growing up has always had its joys and heartaches, but today’s teens confront a new landscape of social media, vaping, and rising rates of anxiety and depression. Wilton Youth Council equips students and parents with skills and information to make healthy decisions. Our professionally-led youth programs provide opportunities for leadership development and drug-free fun. We educate and support parents with inspiring speakers and events. Through our collaborations with partner organizations, we create a greater sense of community and strengthen connections among families.

UPCOMING EVENTS

Community Cultural Celebration

Saturday, May 3, 2025

12-3:30 pm

Wilton YMCA

The Community Cultural Celebration is an opportunity to unite the Wilton community, showcasing the diverse cultures that make up our town through dance, music, dress, holidays, and food from around the world. It's an opportunity to interact with and learn from each other, bringing together representatives from various cultures to showcase their unique heritage and educate the Wilton community about their traditions and culture. Each of the (insert #) countries represented will have a table display to help you learn more about their culture and we will also feature larger performances from select cultures throughout the event.

Bring the kids to travel the world with our Passport Program, where they can collect stickers from each country when they stop by their table!
