Bellingham
 

ywca Bellingham works to promote the empowerment of women and girls of all ages and backgrounds,  to advance their quality of life.  Since 1907, the ywca has adapted its services and programs to the needs of the times, but has never wavered in that mission.  Today, the ywca offers low-cost and free housing to women in crisis.  Women come to the ywca for many different reasons but our goal for each woman is the same: to give her an affordable, safe, supportive place to stay and to connect her with whatever resources she needs to get her life back on track.
