The YWCA Greater New Orleans is a member of the YWCAUSA. It was chartered on March 14, 1911 and is administered through a local Board of Directors. The YWCA Greater New Orleans is a nonprofit organization whose mission is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women and promoting peace, justice, freedom and dignity for all.
In August 2005, the YWCA Greater New Orleans suffered severe damage to all of its facilities resulting from the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. The Board remains committed to rebuilding its physical facilities and programs. Prior to Hurricane Katrina, the YWCA Greater New Orleans served a multi-parish territory, including Jefferson, Orleans, St Tammany and St. Bernard parishes, providing services such as rape crisis counseling, domestic violence services, family counseling, child care services, after school tutoring, and summer programs.
The YWCA Greater New Orleans is rebuilding its facilities. The recovery mission of the YWCA's Board of Directors is to rebuild the physical structure, programs and services of the agency; to maintain visibility in the community; and to rebuild membership capacity in the Greater New Orleans area. To support its recovery mission, the YWCA Greater New Orleans current and primary source of revenues are proceeds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
