Join us for our bi-monthly discussions on “We Were Eight Years in Power” by Ta-Nehisi Coates at the Shorewood Public Library.
Circle of Women is an annual spring celebration of the power of women’s vision to improve individual lives and the community as a whole. YWCA Southeast Wisconsin debuted this event in 1995, the first event of its kind in metro-Milwaukee to demonstrate that the generosity of women (and those who share their commitment) can make the impossible probable.
In April 2018, we celebrated our 125th Anniversary with a distinctive celebration, Circle of Women: Empowering Truth, which highlighted highs and lows of building the YWCA over decades and the work yet to be done to build a more just community.
