About Us
YWCA of Kaua’i is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
When founded in 1921, our early mission was to help young women who had very few or no contacts outside the home. In our 100 year history, the needs of Kaua’i’s residents have changed greatly and the work of YWCA Kaua’i has evolved to meet those needs. Today, our programs focus on women’s empowerment, racial justice, and violence prevention and intervention in response to sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse. We seek to eliminate family violence in all of its forms, provide treatment to those who have been traumatized by violence, and provide the skills necessary for individuals who were once violent to live productive and caring lives.
YWCA Kaua’i is a leader on issues of women’s empowerment and the elimination of racism on the island of Kaua’i and across the state of Hawai’i.
