Mission Statement
YWCA Lancaster is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all.
About This Cause
The roots of gender and racial inequality are deep and pervasive. But, with our rich history and steadfast commitment to the community, YWCA Lancaster remains on the forefront of social change. We create opportunities, break down barriers and give voice to the voiceless. We are teachers, thought leaders and advocates. By harnessing the potential of every person and opening doors of opportunity, YWCA Lancaster brings real change to the fight for gender equality, racial, and social justice. Our focus on meeting immediate needs while creating long-term solutions uniquely positions YWCA Lancaster to achieve its mission. This continuum of response from direct service to issue education to advocacy keeps us poised and ready to meet some of our community’s biggest needs. Our services to the community include emergency shelter and private housing for very low-income folks, sexual assault prevention and counseling, career development leading to economic stability, quality childcare and early childhood education, education, research, advocacy and community engagement towards racial and gender equity.
