The North Suburban YMCA President and CEO, Howard Schultz, is now a member of the Y-USA Small and Mid-Size YMCA CEO Cabinet.
The North Suburban YMCA is located in Northbrook and serves the surrounding communities, including Deerfield.
This group of YMCA CEOs consists of 16 members who represent the various branches of the organization throughout the United States. They all act as advocates for small and medium sized YMCAs.
Schultz served on the National Committee on Membership Standards since 2013 and took part in the Y-USA 2016/17 Leadership Symposium. He has headed the North Suburban Y since 2006, where he oversaw the reduction of North Suburban's debt, and expanded partnerships and memberships. Under his leadership, North Shore has been named Small Business of the Year by the Northbrook Chamber of Commerce in 2013. It has even been given top recognition in nine programs and categories awarded by the voting public in the 22nd Century Media North Shore Choice Awards.
In February this year, North Suburban was also awarded the Y-USA Sponsors Award for Advancing Our Cause, which Schultz accepted on the organization's behalf. Now that he is a member of the Cabinet, he plans to spearhead initiatives to advance the Y's mission across the nation.
