Most Needed Items:
YWCA Madison’s downtown location is home to over 110 women and families. Additionally, YWCA Madison serves individuals and families throughout the community. The participants and residents that we serve through our programs are often some of the most vulnerable members of the community.
In an effort to ensure all residents and program participants have access to essential items, we have put together the following list of our most critically needed items during this time.
Featured Opportunity:
Community Housing programs provide families with rent assistance and supportive case management services throughout Dane County. Our community housing programs are based on a Housing First program model, which incorporates a set of interventions to help families move more rapidly out of the shelter system (or avoid shelter altogether) and maintain permanent housing.
Support this program by purchasing items from the Community Housing Wish List!
