This is what collaboration looks like. Our missions are distinct, but our vision for women in our community is shared.

Our organizations support women at different moments and in different ways, creating a continuum of services, resources and opportunities that help women find safety, build stability, grow their careers, strengthen their economic security and thrive.

We don’t compete. We collaborate. We connect, champion and strengthen one another because we know we can make a bigger impact when we work together.

On Women’s Equality Day, we’re championing women supporting women and a Cincinnati where every woman has the opportunity to thrive.

There’s something powerful about getting in a room with people who understand the work you do every day!

Our team recently joined leaders from more than 60 domestic violence and sexual assault programs across Ohio for the Ohio Domestic Violence Network's annual Leadership Retreat. Juwana Glover, our Chief Program Officer and ODVN Board Chair, led a session on "Steady Leadership in Uncertain Times," talking with nearly 50 leaders about staff wellness, compassion fatigue and ways to help their teams stay resilient through challenging times.

YWCA team members Tiffany Wilson and Nicole Williams joined Juwana for the retreat, taking time to learn, connect and recharge alongside others doing this important work across the state.

Some conversations have the power to move a community forward.

This fall, YWCA Greater Cincinnati is launching Mission Forward Speaker Series, a new annual event bringing nationally recognized thought leaders to Cincinnati for conversations that inspire action, advance equity and strengthen our community.

We are honored to welcome acclaimed legal scholar, civil rights advocate and bestselling author Professor Anita Hill as our inaugural speaker.

Mission Forward is presented with the generous support of Interact for Health.
