YWCA Hamilton

YWCA Hamilton provides meaningful, accessible services to create opportunities, amplify voices, and co-create gender inclusive and equitable communities.

Our Vision

YWCA Hamilton envisions an equitable world where women (cis and trans), girls, Two-Spirit and gender diverse people have the rights and resources to shape their own lives and lead their communities.Our impact is made possible on the lands of the traditional territory of the Haudenosaunee and Anishnaabeg.

This territory is covered by the Upper Canada Treaties, within the lands protected by the “Dish With One Spoon” wampum agreement, and is directly adjacent to Haldimand Treaty territory. We respect the longstanding relationships with the local Indigenous communities, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Six Nations of the Grand River, and are committed to the recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission Report.
