YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION: INDEPENDENCE PLACE
Some are surprised to learn we don't offer swim lessons and other recreational sports related activities, yet, from its inception, the YWCA of Greater Cleveland has always worked to empower women and eliminate racism-wherever it exists, by any means necessary. Our leaders are continuing to tackle barriers related to gender, age, class, race, and all forms of discrimination.
In 2010 Independence Place was founded with 23 apartments (one-third accommodating children) to offer permanent supportive housing for young adults 18-24 years of age, many of whom have experienced homelessness and the foster care system. Our trauma-informed system of care model focuses on increasing the self-sufficiency of the individuals and families, helping them to live their best life.
