Washington Low Income Housing Alliance’s (WLIHA) Housing and Homelessness Advocacy Day (HHAD) 2025 once again brought together voices united with unwavering determination.

In honor of Women's History Month, we are highlighting a few trailblazing women from Washington State who have strengthened our region through their economic, social, political, and civic work. These women, and many others, were exceptional, inspirational, and fearless in ensuring that we have the rights we engage in today. For that, we thank them.

YWCA has a long history of serving women and girls, and our Fifth & Seneca location in Downtown Seattle has its own unique story to tell. Learn more about our Seneca location, how it has provided shelter for women and families for over a century, and how we’re moving forward as our newly-remodeled building reopens its doors in March 2025.
