Black History Month is a time to celebrate the accomplishments of Black leaders from our region and beyond, as well as engage in conversations about how to better support Black community members today.
With MLK Day behind us and Black History and Women's History Months ahead, we're pulling together a list of our favorite reads (and a couple of listens!) about issues of equity in our community and beyond.
Employing anti-racism principles in our day-to-day operations is an essential part of the work we do at YWCA. Through the Volunteer Services Department, we look at several factors in our volunteer outreach and recruiting in order to achieve equitable outcomes in the services that we and the rest of YWCA provide.
At the start of this year, the first of a new decade, we’re asking ourselves, “What does equity look like in 2020?” Learn more about two women who have created a more equitable world through trailblazing paths for other women of color in their industries.
In the midst of our New Year’s resolutions, we want to remind community members that your help is needed at YWCA. Read on for our tips on making community engagement a regular part of your life without overloading you schedule.
It's the final days of 2019, and we're celebrating the new year with a selection of our blog posts that we published over the last 12 months. Covering everything from Black LGBTQ icons to the incredible supporters of our programs, this list spans the many different kinds of work that YWCA does.
We share the stories of our program participants, programs, and staff, as well as news about the agency and what’s happening in our King and Snohomish community.
