Advancing Justice: Ensuring Equity for All
YWCA is on a mission to eliminate racism, empower women, stand up for social justice, help families and strengthen communities. We are one of the oldest and largest women’s organizations in the nation, serving over 2 million women, girls and their families.
At YWCA, we are eliminating racism and empowering women. We will get up and do the work until injustice is rooted out, until institutions are transformed, until the world sees women, girls and people of color the way we do: Equal. Powerful. Unstoppable.
Until Justice Just Is
Until Justice Just Is (UJJI) is an annual campaign of YWCA USA, designed to build community among those who work for racial justice and raise awareness about the impact of institutional and structural racism. This annual campaign provides the opportunity for communities across the United States to find an issue or cause that inspires them to unite their voices to educate, advocate and promote racial justice. UJJI is one part of our larger national strategy to fulfill our mission of eliminating racism.
At YWCA, we believe it is time to be more inclusive in our language and in our campaigns.
Take the Challenge
YWCA is excited to announce this year’s 2024 YWCA Racial Justice Challenge, will begin on April 1, 2024. The YWCA Racial Justice Challenge is the action component of the Until Justice Just Is campaign, which runs throughout the month of April to raise awareness of systemic racism and how each of us can take action to advance justice.
