Our Impact
YWCA SEW's Impact
YWCA Southeast Wisconsin is part of YWCA USA – a network of one of the nation’s oldest and most formidable organizations standing up for the dignity of women and others who are often deliberately disadvantaged.
We have a challenging mission – one that addresses the two most deeply embedded and damaging drivers of inequality and oppression historically and in today’s world: racism and patriarchy.
We determine the success of our work by the impact we have on those who are most disadvantaged and how much closer it takes us to a truly equal world; this is really the only true benchmark of success that matters and one which we are focused on.
How We Work?
Our program offerings encompass Progressive Education, Women’s Empowerment, and the Eradication of Racism, featuring initiatives such as The Great Relearn, Allyship and Advocacy, as well as a diverse array of Workshops and Events.

Mission Programs
In collaboration with local partners, we proudly offer HSED (High School Equivalency Diploma) and GED (General Educational Development) programs for students in Milwaukee and Racine. Additionally, we join hands to organize “Dress For Success,” a program designed to equip women with the resources and confidence they need to thrive in the workplace. Through these impactful initiatives, we are committed to fostering personal and professional growth, one individual at a time.
