Through dialogue the YWCA engages the community, bringing together diverse groups of concerned citizens to discuss racial and economic barriers, challenges and disparities.

We turn our concerns into action through the many programs we offer to make a difference in the lives of women and their families in the Triangle.

Finally, by partnering with other organizations and voicing our concerns, we advocate for those with the greatest needs and fewest resources.

Never in our history has our mission been more important than it is today and the YWCA continues its unwavering commitment to vision of peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all people.
