YWCA has an ongoing mandate to provide leadership development opportunities to women and girls.
- 76 percent of women and children served by YWCA have incomes below the federal poverty level or less, the equivalent of about $23,850 a year for a family of four.
- We work to address the unique needs of those living in poverty and strive for outcomes that increase emotional and economic self-sufficiency.
- We provide women with economic empowerment programs, housing, health care, financial literacy and career education.
