Meet the four honorees of our 2021 "Washington Women Who Dare" celebration, presented in partnership with Comcast Washington and TEDxSeattleWomen. Learn how they’re creating a brighter future for everyone in the region.

Held in June, the second annual Bertha Pitts Campbell Equity Awards is open for nominees in four categories: Community Champion, Rising Champion, Small Business Champion, and Large Business Champion.

A tax on the ultra-wealthy would make Washington's tax code more racially and economically equitable, while raising billions for the social services that are the foundation of our economic recovery.

Our state has the most upside-down tax code in the nation. Coupled with a pandemic that’s lasted nearly 2 years, this has widened income inequality and deprived cities of the resources they need to recover. The solution? Progressive revenue.

Even after serving their sentences, low-income and BIPOC defendants are buried under lifelong Washington court debts that exacerbate racial inequity and prevent people from achieving stability post-incarceration. YWCA is advocating in 2022 to change this injustice with a bill in the Washington Legislature. 

For race and social justice work, the terms "ally" and "accomplice" are often used to describe those who come from places of privilege and their relationship to marginalized groups and individuals. In order to move your race and social justice work from theory to action, it's important to realize that these terms are not interchangeable.
