Director of GBVSS Partnerships and Funding Development

YWCA Seattle | King | Snohomish is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting peace, justice, freedom, and dignity for all. Through housing, health and safety, and economic advancement services, YWCA works alongside individuals and families to build lasting stability.

YWCA’s Gender Based Violence Specialized Services (GBVSS) supports survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, commercial sexual exploitation, and other forms of gender-based violence. Services connect advocacy, housing assistance, legal support, and health access with employment, financial education, and family resources. Our approach centers survivor choice and provides culturally responsive, trauma informed support, particularly for Black and African American survivors and other communities furthest from opportunity.

As GBVSS expands in Snohomish County, YWCA is investing in community relationships, public awareness, and sustainable funding to ensure these services remain available for years to come.
