The YWCA of the Quad Cities has been serving the community since 1917. Through our
programs, we serve over 10,000 youth and women annually.
More important than
the numbers, is our mission to eliminate racism and empower women.
We provide safe places for women and girls, build strong women
leaders, and advocate for women's rights.
Women Come to us in times of crisis, as survivors of rape or
domestic violence. They come for job training and career
counseling. They come for childcare. They come for health and
fitness. They come for a variety of reasons. But they come. And
they leave with a renewed spirit, new skills and stronger lives.
Our
Programs have direct impact and create meaningful change with
measurable results. We not only intend to raise awareness of the
issues, we intend to affect real change. Our goal is not to pave
the way for the future. It is to create the future. A better
future.
Eliminating racism, empowering
women - it's what we are about and what we intend to do.
