Organization

Strengthened by diversity, the YWCA draws together members who strive to create opportunities for women's growth, leadership, and power in order to attain a common vision: peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all people. The YWCA will thrust its collective power toward the elimination of racism, wherever it exists, and by any means necessary.

Throughout our history, the YWCA has been in the forefront of most major movements in the United States as a pioneer in race relations, and the empowerment of women.
