Our YMCA offers courses in both American Heart Association CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and American Red Cross First Aid and Safety. We offer trainings for private groups including Boy and Girl Scout Troops looking to earn merit badges, as well as training for Scout Leaders. The Y is one of the few organizations in the Somerset Hills area that provides training to members of the community.
