YWCAs across Canada are committed to responding to the needs of women, young women and girls at critical turning points in their lives.  Although YWCAs and YMCA-YWCAs offer a variety of programs and services, which meet the needs of women and children in their community, a program marked with the YWCA Turning Point of Women logo indicates a program which addresses the needs of women and young women at critical times in their lives and that are vulnerable to economic and social risks.
