YWCA NYC is
on a MISSION.

We empower women in New York City to advocate for themselves, their families, and their communities as they navigate the intersections of race, class, and gender. Through culturally responsive programming, we create pathways for the next generation of leaders to reach for their dreams and drive social change.

How We Serve the Community

After School &
Out of School Time

Programs where young people find support, creativity, and connection through enriching programs that help them learn, grow, and feel a sense of belonging.

Intiatives

Girls build confidence, explore new interests, and develop leadership skills in supportive spaces designed to help them imagine and shape their futures.

During the summer, students learn, play, and connect through engaging programs that offer structure, enrichment, and a sense of community while school is out.
