About Us
With over a century of dedication to women and their families, the YW Kitchener-Waterloo serves the community as one of our region’s largest non-profit organizations. Over the years we've developed our programming to meet the changing needs of local women and remain committed to gender equality.
Today, we advocate for system level changes while working to provide shelter, supportive and affordable housing, improved education and training, and better childcare services.
YW Kitchener-Waterloo operates about two dozen programs at nearly as many sites across the Region. It offers services in the areas of learning and childcare; summer camp; youth recreation and leadership; emergency, supportive, and affordable housing; and employment and entrepreneurship training.
