why the yw?
Membership in the YWCA of Bergen County is about joining a friendly, caring and supportive organization that serves the women, girls and families in our community. It’s about connecting with others who share your interests and concerns. And it means being eligible to participate in a wide range of programs and services for the entire family.*

Your membership indicates your support for our mission to empower women and girls and eliminate racism—and it’s a mission we can’t accomplish without you.
