YWCA Jamestown is excited to team up with CNOY again this year for another fun winter walk to raise funds for our Empower Her Housing Program.
The economic security, safety, and health of women and families are core to YWCA Jamestown’s mission. Our work is rooted in social justice, at home and in the community. We provide safe housing, create spaces for women to build leadership and independence, and advocate for equity and equal rights for all.
Empower Her Housing is YWCA Jamestown’s comprehensive housing initiative designed to meet women and families where they are. Through Legacy House and First House, we provide safe, stable, and affordable transitional housing for women and children who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Through service-enriched, case management, participants are supported in identifying their capabilities, building essential life skills, and moving toward healthy, independent living.
In addition to supportive housing, housing navigation services help individuals and families overcome barriers to permanent housing.
YWCA Jamestown is a community of people committed to creating a more peaceful, just, and equitable society.....and we need your help. Together, we can build a fearless future where all people live free from harm and oppression.
We know we cannot do this work alone. Our power comes from the women and families we serve and from dedicated supporters like you who share our commitment to justice. When you support YWCA Jamestown, you expand our ability to provide safe housing, critical support, and pathways to stability for women in our community.
Your support helps sustain this work until injustice is rooted out, institutions are transformed, and the world sees women, girls, and people of color the way we do: Equal. Powerful. Unstoppable.
