Racial Justice

The YWCA of Western New York is embarking on an initiative to examine racial issues in Western New York.  In this stage of program development, we have formed a dynamic task force with members from our community.  This task force is developing a strategic plan for action, which includes engaging the community in critical dialogue. 

Racism lives a healthy existence in silence & cover.  Let's talk about it freely without guilt, without prejudice, without despair, and together we will diminish its strength and eliminate it forever.

If your organization is doing similar work, please contact us at (716) 852-6120.   We would love to hear about your program.
