Minnesota YWCAs Come Together at the Minnesota State Capitol

On Monday, March 17, YWCA St. Paul joined with legislators, supporters and other YWCAs from around the state for a day of passionate conversation about our work.

Among the speakers were YWCA CEOs, youth involved in YWCA programming, and legislators Kaohly Vang Her, Ethan Cha, Carlie Kotzya-Witthuhn, and Scott Dibble.

In her moving speech to attendees, YWCA St. Paul CEO Ashley Booker called for a movement among those who support our work. With guidance from history and those who came before us, and hand-in-hand with the community that surrounds us, we’re ready to be the movement alongside people like you.
