Dear Friends,

It is been a remarkable year for the YWCA El Paso del Norte Region. Despite the continuing challenges of the economy, we were pleased to post one of our best years in almost a decade. This could not have been possible without the continued support of members, donors, granting agencies and overall decision making by our staff and volunteer leaders. As with most non-profits, the future has been difficult to Sandra Sánchez Almanzán predict, and annual planning takes the form of cautious optimism. While we are not president ready to throw caution to the wind, we can say with certainty that the strategic decisions made in recent years have strengthened the organization.

We have much to accomplish in the future; yet, we take pride in celebrating the services and achievements of 2009-2010. Notably, our recurring theme of investing to strengthen existing infrastructure has proven to be the right move for uncertain economic times. We are strengthening operations, working toward national accreditation of a number of our programs, and building upon existing models where feasible.

The YWCA El Paso del Norte Region continues its legacy as the largest, most comprehensive YWCA in the nation, providing services from housing for the homeless and for senior citizens, financial counseling and debt management, child care and after school programs, racial justice, leadership, support for divorcing parents, to a host of fitness programs designed for persons of all ages.

After providing after school programs for decades, the El Paso YWCA After School is poised to have the very first nationally accredited Army After School Programs that are community based in the country! We are very proud of this accomplishment and invite you to read more about the work of the YWCA over the past year.

Lastly, we invite you to be a part of our future as we set the course and continue to blaze new trails on the frontier of service to women, children, families, servicemen and women, and the elderly.

For more than 100 years, the YWCA has played an integral role in building our community, from the early days of operating cafeterias to show hospitality to persons passing through our community, to operating residences for women in search of safe housing. Today, we continue to build our community through our Racial Justice Initiative, Momentum Leadership, Teen Leadership, and Volunteer Services.

Racial Justice The Racial Justice “We… the People” Initiative fosters justice, appreciation for diversity, and the elimination of racism via our core values of Respect, Understanding, Acceptance and Appreciation through education, collaboration and dialogue. In 2009-2010, 16,398 staff and community members benefited from 722 training seminars. YWCA Racial Justice facilitators provided 812 hours of training; an increase of 112 hours over the the previous fiscal year. This year, the Racial Justice Curriculum was expanded to include fifteen new modules on topics such as, Cultural Understanding, Cross-Cultural Communication, and Change-Agent Behaviors.

The Racial Justice Program held its second annual Imagine: Peace event in May 2010 with increased participation from community members, organizations, and YWCA staff. At this event, the Racial Justice Ambassador Awards were presented to Dr. Johnnie M. Washington, the Rainbow Miner Initiative, and Clemencia Prieto. The El Paso Holocaust Museum and Study Center partnered by hosting a photo contest to illustrate the various themes of peace. 21 Teen Leadership Volunteer Services The YWCA Teen Leadership program engages youth Volunteers have a significant impact on YWCA ages 11-18 in programming that encourages them to services to the community.
