HALTER actively participates in programs designed to meet the needs of all children to help them live fuller, happier lives. HALTER also assists at-risk teenagers by offering opportunities to participate in training and riding programs.

Our mission at the Heart of the Valley YMCA is to create programs that build healthy spirit, mind and body for all, while making sure no one is turned away from our services and program based on an inability to pay. We are a powerful association of men, women and children joined together by a shared commitment to nurturing the potential of kids, promoting healthy living, and fostering a sense of social responsibility. We believe that lasting personal and social change can only come about when we all work together to invest in our kids, our health and our neighbors. That’s why, at the Y, strengthening community is our cause. Between our military and economic hardship scholarships for members, Youth Development and Early Childhood Education programs, and a focus on healthy living and community safety through several programs within our branches, we are able to reach a widespread demographic and bring to fruition our focus on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility to our community.

Camp Aranzazu (pronounced Ah ran' zah zoo) is dedicated to enriching the lives of children and adults with chronic illnesses and special needs by providing unique camping, environmental studies, and retreat experiences to groups with special needs. We accomplish this mission based on an ecumenical understanding that as people of God, we are called to demonstrate love and compassion for others, and responsibility for our environment. The barrier-free facility features paved walkways to assist wheelchair travel, specialized equipment to enable maximum participation in water sports and other physical activities, as well as a medical facility for campers requiring daily treatments and medications. The camp seeks to create and maintain a partnership between the campers and the land that preserves and protects the existing habitat for native and endangered species of plants and animals, and complements the history of the area and local community. Many community partners have joined together to help make the camp experience extraordinary and unique from any other camp program. Some of these community partners include the Rockport Center for the Arts, Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi, the Texas Department of Parks and Wildlife, and the The University of Texas Marine Science Institute.
