The YWCA Great Lakes Bay Region's mission is to eliminate racism and empower women. Since 1891, the YWCA Great Lakes Bay Region has focused on empowering women, and served as a safe place for women. Today, we focus on empowering women of all ages through programming such as our Women's Economic Empowerment Program (WEEP) which includes Getting Ahead, Moving Ahead and Young Women Choosing Action. We have also expanded our programming to include InterACT, a program offering diversity, equity, and inclusion solutions to businesses and organizations in the Great Lakes Bay Region.
