The lives of women and families are better.
EmBe strives each day to be a place of empowerment where women excel, where children and youth thrive, where families succeed, and where the community is enriched by our work.
YOUTH
EmBe supports youth in our communities through after school programs, STEAM education, camps, sports leagues, and more. EmBe programs keep kids active and engaged, help them build healthy friendships with their peers and adults, and gain knowledge and confidence no matter their interests. From robots or running and volunteering to volleyball, Youth Development programs at EmBe keep kids’ minds and bodies active.

CHILDCARE
We believe children learn through life experiences and play. It is equally important for children to develop desirable personal and social values, to exercise reason and to develop the ability to choose and make decisions. EmBe has an open door policy and parents and grandparents are invited to drop in anytime to participate in their child’s learning experience. From drop-in visits to chaperoning field trips to enjoying family events, we value and encourage our parent-teacher partnerships.
WOMEN
EmBe is a bold leader, empowering women. Our women’s programs provide opportunities for the community to learn, grow and reinforce the leadership and well-being of women. Our programs raise awareness on a variety of women’s issues, provide leadership and involvement opportunities and actively promote gender equity and social justice issues. We believe deeply in meeting women where they are in their life and strive to walk that path with them. When women support women, amazing things happen.

SCHOOL AGE CARE
It is important for children to have a safe and productive way to spend time after school and in the summer. Latch key kids can face many risks. They may worry, eat poorly, watch too much television or neglect their homework. Fortunately, EmBe has a great before & after-school program and summer program so your school age child will have a place to go where they can interact with friends, learn, work on homework and relax. The program is everything you ever wanted in a safe child care experience and more!
Our Programs
Offering quality and affordable programs, services and opportunities meeting the needs of women and their families.
AQUATICS
EmBe has spent almost 90 years teaching people to swim in Sioux Falls and the region. If you grew up in Sioux Falls, its likely that your parents or grandparents spent time in the EmBe pool. Whether your child is starting their first lesson or you’re training for a triathlon, we can help you learn the skills you need to be successful. At EmBe, our goal is to teach people how to be safe in, on and around the water.
