A name change that celebrates who we’ve become and where we’re going.
This is more than an update to our name. It is a deliberate step that reflects who we are, how we work alongside communities and the responsibility we carry to use our energy and voice to support lasting change.
YWCA BC is a registered charity committed to advancing gender equity through our programs, advocacy and revenue-generating social enterprises. Guided by the needs of the people we serve, we empower and strengthen communities in our province through housing, child care, employment services, mentorship and more.
The Equity Effect is what happens when commitment turns into action. It is the ripple of change created when barriers are challenged, opportunities are opened and communities are strengthened.
It’s about turning values into action and moving forward together toward a more equitable future for everyone.
