Hogback Development Company, who produces The Downtown Yakima Mile, seeks to shed light on the invaluable services that the YWCA Yakima provides in hopes that the community will also join in the effort to end domestic violence in our community by participating in the event.
By participating in the Downtown Yakima Mile, the community can provide the YWCA with the resources to help every family in need. We encourage you to learn more about the life-saving services provided by the Yakima YWCA at www.ywcayakima.org.
In 2020 alone, the YWCA touched over 13,000 people here in the valley.
The 24-hour domestic violence
emergency shelter provided 8,000+ bed nights, and the crisis hotline averaged 25 phone calls a day.
YWCA Yakima is here for You!
Our helpline is prepared to answer a variety of questions about your options, safety, how to access our safe shelter, our other programs, and community resources.
Friends and family who are concerned about how to support a friend who they think is experiencing domestic violence are welcome to call as well.
