Mission & Vision

An inclusive and thriving community transformed by racial and gender equity, with peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all people.

OUR MISSION

YWCA is on a mission to eliminate racism and empower women.

OUR VISION

A healthy community transformed by racial and gender equity, where women and girls of color have equal access to opportunity, and there is social justice for all people.

OUR CORE BELIEFS

  • When the barriers of institutional and structural racism are broken down, everyone will benefit.
  • Because BIPOC women have been historically marginalized and excluded, their voices must be centered in this work.
  • When people are confident in their inherent strength and communities are valued and self-directed, they are empowered.
  • We must stand together across lines of difference with courage, compassion, and commitment to transform our community.
