YW Hub facility

Since 1984, and after more than 30 years in Inglewood, YW is thrilled to grow our presence in the community with the YW Hub facility – 1715 17 Ave SE – now open!

For more than a century, YW has provided services for women in our community. In order to continue our evolution and be responsive to the needs of women and their families today and into the future, we need a new facility that will be as adaptable as our organization.

The new YW Hub facility provides accessible supports for women and their families that include transitional housing, counselling, language and employment skill training, child development and parenting programming as well as support services to manage the organization.

Our goal is to provide a safe and caring environment for the women and families we support, as well as for the community we reside in.

The YW Hub facility enables YW to continue to serve women and their families and expand our programs, allowing us to offer services to additional people.

The new YW Hub includes:

• Supportive, transitional housing for 100 women
• 90 childcare spaces
• Parenting and family orientated programming and courses
• Employment resource and language instruction classrooms
• Counselling space
• Fitness, wellness, and community spaces
• Community kitchen
• Administrative space

YW Fitness, the Community Kitchen and Community Spaces are open to the community. For more information on partnerships contact Kathryn at communityhub@ywcalgary.ca
