YWCA Greater Austin is a small nonprofit based in Austin, Texas, dedicated to eliminating racism and empowering women. Its origins trace back to 1885 as the Young Women's Christian Association of the University of Texas, evolving over time into a broader community organization. The current program lineup includes Generation YW, which operates in schools and during school breaks, and the Continuing Education Series that provides professional training for counselors, social workers, and therapists. The organization previously ran the YW Counseling & Referral Center, which offered sliding-scale mental health counseling for women, couples, and families; in 2024 that center closed and a Financial Health Clinic was launched. These efforts reflect a sustained focus on mental health, education, and youth support in Central Texas. Its work targets women, families, and school-age youth by offering access to mental health resources, educational programs, and prevention services. In addition to its youth-focused efforts, the organization participates in the broader YWCA movement dedicated to combating racism and advancing women's opportunities in Central Texas.
