Domestic violence doesn't stay at home. It follows survivors to work. A safe workplace can be a lifeline.

Update: We are so thankful for the generosity of our community. This need has been fulfilled 🧡🧡

Breaking need: We are in need of baby wipes. If you have some available or would like to purchase some and send them our way, we are forever grateful. We appreciate you all.

When you have the opportunity to share what you do with youth, you give them a sense of how it feels each day to help people heal from unkind thoughts.

Today at St. Joseph Chamber of Commerce's My Success event we shared with area high school students the relief that comes from "Shred it and Forget it". This bag of shredding is from today 8am to 2pm. We get to do it again tomorrow!

Try it out for yourself. What unkind thought can you shred today?

4 Years of Jessica at the Y!

We've got another Y-versary to celebrate!

Jessica is celebrating 4 years with the YWCA St. Joseph as one of our amazing Shelter Advocates!

Being a Shelter Advocate means being there for people when they need it most, and over the past four years, Jessica has been an important part of making our shelter a welcoming and supportive space for those who come through our doors.

Four years brings a lot of different days, a lot of different faces, and plenty of memories along the way, and we are glad Jessica has been part of our YWCA St. Joseph team through it all!

Help us give Jessica a BIG Happy 4-year Y-versary!

Thanks for being part of the Y, Jessica! Here's to year five!
