YWCA Seattle | King | Snohomish reaffirms its commitment to sustainable policy solutions that advance fairness and justice. Our 2025 Legislative Priorities reflect state and federal advocacy efforts that strengthen communities and promote lasting change.

Housing and Homelessness Advocacy Day 2024 was unforgettable. YWCA staff, volunteers, allies, and fellow housing advocates played a crucial role in the success of the event. Here are the happenings and highlights of the day.

YWCA works to deliver the tools and resources to support women and families. By advancing economic stability, housing security, access to healthcare and other critical resources, we aim to help underserved communities thrive. Learn one way we accomplish this through our 2024 Legislative Agenda.

In October, the Washington Low Income Housing Alliance held its 33rd annual Conference on Ending Homelessness. This 3-day conference took place virtually from October 4 - 6, to educate, discuss, and organize on ending homelessness in the state and beyond.

Now that the 2023 Washington legislative session has come to a close, we reflect on our policy wins, the importance of our equitable approach, and what comes next in creating a future where everyone in our community can thrive.

As the 2023 Washington legislative session begins, YWCA is dedicated to relentlessly advocating for legislation that helps marginalized communities go from surviving to thriving.
