Together with YWCA USA and YWCA's across the country, our YWCA is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all. Our safety net of services includes: emergency assistance, shelter, safe and stable housing, personalized case management, counseling, employment assistance, career coaching, domestic violence advocacy and support groups, as well as mentoring, internships and opportunities for youth and future leaders, and access to needed health care for underserved populations including LBT, immigrant and AIDS/HIV-affected women.
Our work also focuses on eliminating the enduring disparities which disproportionately affect women and families of color in education, health care, housing and nearly every institution in our country.
By teaching people how to navigate these everyday systems and reach their goals by advocating for equity in policy, communications and access to services we create a community where everyone lives with dignity and respect.
