Advancing the well-being of women in Utah through safety, opportunity, and advocacy.
YWCA Utah is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
YWCA Utah advances the well-being of women in Utah through safety, opportunity, and advocacy. Since 1906 the YWCA has designed its work to encourage women’s aspirations, protect and promote their rights, and meet their changing needs. The YWCA’s enduring belief has been that better lives for all women lead to stronger families, communities, and societies.
Safety
Safety and freedom are at the heart of women’s empowerment. The YWCA’s comprehensive family violence services offer adults and children, safety, support, and meaningful opportunities to build violence-free lives.
Opportunity
We dream of a world where all women are able to learn, lead, and influence the world around them. We are committed to offering life-changing opportunities to women: from the availability of affordable, quality child care for working mothers; to encouraging women to get involved in public policy; to developing young women into strong leaders; and lifting up voices of young women of color.
Advocacy
We are a statewide voice for change on issues critical to the well-being of Utah women and girls.
