Youth ProgramsYWCA Central Carolinas Youth Programs provide year-round afterschool and full day summer programming for over 130 youth in Kindergarten through 5th grade at no costs to their families. We serve youth throughout Mecklenburg and Union Counties in public housing communities, County Park and Recreation facilities, public schools and YWCAs building. The purpose of the program is improving academics with a focus on literacy, keeping children in positive, safe environments, and providing holistic support that meets the needs of students families and encourages parent engagement. YWCA was excited to welcome our students back for in-person instruction this year in all eight of our Youth Learning Centers at a reduced capacity. During the 2021-2022 school year, 46% of students increased and or maintained their reading level if already on grade level while enrolled.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$780.8KWomen In Transition
Women In Transition provides safe, affordable housing and comprehensive support services for women each day who have experienced homelessness or housing insecurity. Participants must earn less than 50% of Area Median Income ($33,000 for a family of one) at program entry. Participants work 1:1 with a participant advocate to create a plan upon entering the program which includes the goals the participant sets and how progress of those goals will be measured. Every participant has one housing and one budget goal but can identify other goals related to health and wellness, career/employment, sobriety/recovery, etc. WIT provides housing for up to 66 women every day and serves over 100 annually.
