Phillis Wheatley

Westside YWCA

The Phillis Wheatley Westside YWCA will create a compassionate center for women and their families, providing vital programs, resources, and opportunities for new careers and jobs. YWCA Greater Atlanta will expand signature programs to bring an Early Learning Academy and Digital Skills Academy to the site. Our collaborators CHRIS 180, Families First, Morehouse School of Medicine, Westside Future Fund, and the YMCA of Metro Atlanta will provide mental health, physical health, and social services to these women. The Phillis Wheatley Westside YWCA will be the only organization on the Westside solely focused on women. With your support, transformation is possible.
