According to the website for the Greater Hartford YMCA, McCain is listed as the Health and Wellness Director for the Y.
A further check into McCain's criminal background reveals a rather extensive criminal history that the Greater Hartford YMCA neglected and still put McCain in close proximity working with children. This information is all readily available to anyone with a computer and internet access.
It seems unconscionable that this is the level of care that the YMCA takes in protecting children entrusted to their care
