The YMCA of Metuchen, Edison, Woodbridge and South Amboy (MEWSA) announces Rose Cushing as President & CEO as of June 22, 2016. Cushing has been interim CEO of the nonprofit since December 19, 2015. The Board of Directors finalized the position by a unanimous vote in their June meeting.

Before December, Cushing served as District Executive Director of Child Care of the YMCA of MEWSA, where she directed the day-to-day operations of 15 early education and school age child care programs serving more than 900 children on a daily basis.

Bruce Peragallo, YMCA of MEWSA Chair of the Board of Directors said “Over the last six months, Rose took on the role of CEO without hesitation and has performed admirably. Given Rose’s impeccable track record with the Y during her 26 year tenure, she was the obvious choice.”
