YWCA Evanston/North Shore
2011 Annual Impact Report
with the support of people like you...
Dear Friends:
Can you imagine a world...
...in which every home is a safe
place for women and children?
...where all members of our
community have opportunities
and equal access to those things
they need to grow and thrive?
...where we all work together as
a community to combat racial
inequities and discrimination?
Our mission, to empower women, eliminate
racism, and promote peace, justice, freedom
and dignity, is bold, courageous and forward
thinking. It inspires us to work towards what we
imagine.
In 2011, we did more of that envisioning than
usual, a process that has invigorated our racial
justice and women’s empowerment work.
Partners for the Future, a matching challenge
grant from the Evanston Community
Foundation, generated $100,000 for YWCA
programs and enabled us to build a new
Leadership Circle of donors whose generous
support helps sustain us.
We have also strengthened existing programs,
expanding our financial literacy program to
serve 50% more women and providing support
for 8% more women and children along their
journey to end the violence in their lives.
Change won’t come overnight, but I do believe
if we can imagine it, we can make it happen.
And that is exactly what the YWCA is doing each
and every day through the work we do.
As always, we are grateful for the commitment of
our staff, our Board of Directors, our volunteers,
and the many donors who enable us to carry
out our work. Thank you for all you do to help
make change possible.
Together, we (and that includes all
of you!) are making it happen.

we are working to empower women...
...because when women are empowered they can thrive; achieving self-sufficiency, helping create strong families and enriching
their communities.
With your support:
•
152 women participated in our Basic
Money Management classes, which
provide low-to-moderate income
women with tools to help with budgeting, banking and credit issues.
•
We took our Basic Money Management
program on the road, working with
partner agencies like Infant Welfare Society, Village of Skokie Department of
Human Services and Connections for
the Homeless to bring financial literacy
to more women in our communities.
•
Our YW Community Cafés, inaugurated
this past fall, brought together people
with diverse ideas and perspectives to
imagine Evanston as a community in
which women and girls can thrive.
•
The Young Women’s Leadership
Board supported all of our events and
activities, bringing a fresh perspective
to our work and helping young women
gain critical leadership skills to serve
their communities for years to come.
•
A capacity crowd of 400 people at
the 4th annual YWomen Leadership
Awards honored extraordinary women
from our community who have shown
leadership in impacting racial justice
and the empowerment of women and,
along the way, inspired all of us.
by Madeline Rose Wilkins
There are rare moments that
propel us confidently toward
our purpose in life; receiving
a YWomen Award was one of
those moments for me. It was
unbelievably assuring to know
that my journey and service have
been noticed and valued. There
have been few greater feelings
of delight than when I was assembled with those who have
invested in my growth, nurtured
my development and witnessed
my failures and victories, large
and small, to say ‘Thank you.
Ebony Joy, YWomen honoree
we are facing racism head on...
...because when we learn to talk
about race and recognize how
racism affects all of us, we can
create a stronger, more vibrant
and more equitable community.
With your support:
by Abby Stein
Talking through racism with
others from the community has
opened my eyes in new ways.
There are things that happen
every single day that I honestly
have never noticed before. This
series made me start thinking
about the ways systemic racism
exists in our community.
Life will be better for all of us
when more of us are truly looking at how things work (or don’t!)
for every citizen in Evanston.
2011 participant, Community
Conversations on Race
•
We fully launched our 4-part racial justice dialogue series, Community Conversations on Race. and over 100 people have joined us to engage in honest
conversations, examining how systemic racism affects the day-to-day life of
all who live and work in Evanston, envisioning what racial equity could look
like in our city and identifying specific
roles individuals could take to move us
toward that reality.
•
Let’s Talk at Lunch was launched. Averaging 14 people each month, the group
explored the hows and whys of talking
about race and examined current issues
from a racial lens.
•
We started engaging our community
by partnering with schools, churches
and local organizations to discuss and
better understand racism in our community’s structures.
•
The 12th annual Ricky Byrdsong Memorial Race Against Hate brought almost
4,000 people together from throughout Chicagoland to walk, run, and race
against hate, joining the YWCA in advocating for an end to racism and violence.

we are working to end domestic violence...
...because when women are free
from domestic violence, they will
be independent, self-sufficient
and empowered to make their
own life choices.
With your support:
•
2,143 crisis line calls were fielded, offering domestic violence victims immediate intervention, emotional support
and referrals.
•
259 women and their children received
emergency shelter, counseling and
supportive services at Mary Lou’s Place.
•
125 women living in their homes received community counseling services
and assistance in developing safety
plans.
•
581 clients seeking Orders of Protection
received legal assistance and referrals
from our court advocates.
•
8,920 hours of individual and group
counseling, therapy, child care, advocacy and life skills training were provided
to assist women and their children in
recovering from the abuse in their lives.
by a child staying in our shelter
The services my children and
I received at the YWCA Evanston/North Shore profoundly
changed our lives. We were able
to be safe in the shelter and
were counseled throughout our
stay. I continue to receive walkin counseling services for free,
which has enabled me to reclaim
my self-esteem and remain free
of violence.
I hope that the YWCA continues
to receive funding so that they
can keep serving the needs of
domestic violence survivors.

we are stemming violence through early
intervention...
...because when we help our
youth build the social-emotional
skills to treat one another with
respect and dignity, they learn
to build healthy relationships as
they mature.
With your support:
by Aylin M., Mark Twain School
•
9,053 participants in our Building
Healthy Relationships program from
Evanston, Skokie, Des Plaines and Winnetka elementary, middle and high
schools gained self-esteem and respect
for others by learning how to deal with
bullying, resolve conflict and recognize
what is healthy and what is unhealthy
in their relationships.
•
We are continuing a three-year partnership with Loyola University to address campus dating violence, training
their security and health and wellness
staff and facilitating groups for women
to discuss issues in their dating relationships.
•
We began a new partnership withNorthwestern University, working with
students, faculty and staff on issues of
campus dating violence.
The YWCA’s violence prevention
program is especially helpful
in addressing bullying because
it teaches concrete, practical
problem-solving.
Teacher at Melzer School
District 63
As a result of our partnership
with the YWCA, we have better
systems in place both to prevent campus dating violence and
to assist women who have been
abused.

we are encouraging all children to
learn to swim...
...because when children have
access to swim lessons, they
can be safe in the water; enjoying our pools and beaches, participating on our swim teams and
gaining access to jobs and recreational opportunities that can
serve them for a lifetime.
With your support:
•
1,200 children were enrolled in our Flying Fish Learn-to-Swim program. Ten
percent received financial assistance
through the Flying Fish Scholarship
Fund.
•
80 children who participated in community camps received free swimming
instruction for the summer.
•
600 girls and boys participated on the
Flying Fish Swim Team.
•
15 swimmers participated in Illinois Senior State Championship, 8 swimmers
participated in Sectionals and 3 participated in Junior Nationals.
•
2 swimmers participated in Senior Nationals and qualified for Olympic Trials
•
40 swimmers represented the YWCA
Evanston/North Shore at the Sunkissed
Invitational (YWCA Nationals).
•
$98,000 was raised by the Flying Fish
Swim Team through the 17th annual
Swim Marathon to support the programs and services of the YWCA Evanston/North Shore.
by Zinzi Steele
Thank you so much for allowing my boys the opportunity of
a lifetime. My three boys love
to swim, especially my oldest.
This swim class has built his
confidence to the highest level. Without your generosity my
boys would not be able to take
these lessons or learn to swim
and I would always be nervous
with them around water. I hope
in the future that I can repay
you by helping another family
that needs some assistance just
like we have needed.
Recipient of scholarship from
Flying Fish Aquatics
I give to the ywca...
...because the YWCA Evanston/North Shore
does the best job of any organization I know
of making deep and lasting changes to improve the quality of womens’ and kids’ lives in
our community.
I give because Flying Fish Aquatics works hard
to reach underserved kids and to teach them
to swim. This is especially important in our
community with thousands of children near
the shores of Lake Michigan. No child should
grow up without knowing how to swim, yet
many miss the chance to learn because of
the expense, time and logistics of getting to
a pool. The YWCA’s swim scholarships and
outreach efforts give more kids that chance
every year.
I give because the YWCA’s programs provide
many ways for us to give back to the community. From participating in the Flying Fish
swim marathon to wrapping holiday gifts for
residents of the domestic violence shelter,
from running in the Ricky Byrdsong Memorial Race Against Hate to celebrating the outstanding achievements of women of all ages
in our community at YWomen, the YWCA has
linked our family to our community in a way
that enriches us all.
I give because I believe that the deepest,
most positive change in any community happens when women are empowered and learn
how to become safe, secure and productive
in their personal and economic lives.
I give because the YWCA Evanston/North
Shore is led, managed and staffed by
people who care about the women and
families in our community. They are
highly effective and enthusiastic about
changing lives for the better and such
great role models for everyone who participates in the YWCA’s programs. They
have empowered thousands of kids and
adults to swim, to overcome adversity
and to take charge of their safety, health
and economic future.
That’s why I give to the YWCA Evanston/
North Shore!
