YMCA of Greenville
Since 2014, the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville has partnered with the YMCA of Greenville and Prisma Health to deliver Exercise is Medicine Greenville®, a comprehensive 12-week medically based program for adults experiencing at-risk chronic health conditions such as hypertension, obesity, hyperlipidemia or hypercholesterolemia. Through EIMG®, participants learn how to reduce their risks and improve their overall health by adapting healthy behaviors that include exercise and movement. Upon completion of the 12-week program, participants are encouraged to continue with exercise and healthy life style choices.
YMCA of Greenville is a leading nonprofit community resource that weaves honesty, caring, respect and responsibility through all of our programs, staff and special events. We seek to strengthen our community through these four traits, while serving a diverse population of adults and children of all ages.
Our programs and events are focused around fun, physical activity and self-
improvement. Our strength to deliver impactful services to our community come from dedicated staff, volunteers and donors; a long-standing reputation of reliability and accountability; and fiscal responsibility.
YMCA of Greenville is chartered to serve all of Greenville County, though our doors are always open to all who wish to join our family.
