Mission - YWCA of the Greater Triangle

Mission

The YWCA is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.

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 this mission of eliminating racism and empowering women been more important than it is today. Join us in our unwavering commitment to peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all people.

The YWCA is a safe place for kids after school, a fun place for summer camp, and much, much more. We are also a supportive place for women in transition, an enriching place for seniors, a hopeful place for medically at-risk women, and an open place for courageous action that confronts racism. Our programs have benefited women and their families throughout our community - in profound and life-changing ways - every day since 1901.
