Some people think the victims we help all stay in our domestic violence shelter. In fact, the women we help are all around you, every day. Women you would have never guessed needed help from anyone. You see, the problems we address aren’t based on your income, or your race, or your position in the community.
We hear people say all the time that they’d like to help hard working people who really need it. Chances are, you’ll never know who those people are. But we do.
Join the YWCA and help us help women you know. |

I’m every woman…
I’m the woman who works in the next office who you always thought had the perfect family. What you don’t know is that I see a domestic violence counselor at the YWCA on my lunch hour.

I’m every woman…
I’m the widow who moved in with her daughter and son-in-law in the nice house next door to you. What you don’t know is that my son-in-law is being abusive to me, and the YWCA hotline helped me make a safety plan in case I need to leave.

I’m every woman…
I’m the woman in your church choir who always has a smile for everyone on Sunday morning. What I’ll never tell you is that it took me years of counseling at the YWCA before I could move past being raped as a college student and learn to smile again.
