YWCA of Canton

YWCA is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all, while strengthening communities.

At the YWCA Canton, we provide emergency shelter to the homeless and tools to help them get back on their feet and become self-sufficient. The YWCA Canton also provides early care and education services to children that enhance their development and prepare them to be successful as they transition to kindergarten.YWCA is not a religious organization. We are an independent nonprofit organization with no formal ties to any religious group. While YWCA’s roots are grounded in the values of our devotedly Christian founders, the organization embraces and is strengthened by the richness of its diversity. Today, the people who represent YWCA and those we serve are diverse in every way. We welcome everyone regardless of religion, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, gender expression, age, abilities, socio-economic status and other dimensions of difference. All are welcome.
