The 2021 Washington State Legislative Session is underway and our elected officials are voting on laws that have a tremendous impact on the lives of the women YWCA serves.

Because of COVID-19, these legislative sessions are being held virtually, which is both an opportunity and challenge to ensuring the voices of women from BIPOC communities, especially Black women, are heard by our decision makers.

Thursday, April 1, 2021
12:00 PM - 12:45 PM
Zoom link will be emailed to registrants

Register today! We’re looking forward to sharing the ways our organization is working with the community to fight for social change, and how YOU can support participant-centered advocacy in this unique and challenging year.
