Last Friday we hosted our 8th Annual Stand Against Racism at Seattle City Hall. This year's theme, "Mental Health Through the Lens of Race and Social Justice," explained how institutions like education, health, and criminal justice work to create barriers from childhood through adulthood.

Today is International Worker’s Day, and we’re focusing on a frequently overlooked group of workers: housekeepers.

This year we celebrated 20 years of our Snohomish County Luncheon. In this week's blog, we recap our Everett event, share photos, and discuss the takeaway from our keynote speaker Naomi Tutu.

April 24 is World YWCA Day, when YWCAs across the globe celebrate the network we belong to and the work we share in uplifting women. This year's theme is "Find Your Voice, Share Your Story." Established in 1947 as the Annual YWCA Membership Celebration, World YWCA Day took on its current name and present focus on being part of a global movement in 1972.

April is National Financial Literacy Month and we'd like to take a moment to shine a light on our Economic Resilience Initiative.

For all of April, we have the special opportunity to celebrate the hard work of volunteers everywhere, especially those that dedicate their time to YWCA. We appreciate our volunteers no matter the time of year, but take this month to especially recognize the many ways they contribute to YWCA’s mission.
