Wishing you peace, safety, and community this holiday season from all of us at YWCA Greater Lafayette.

This time of year can be joyful, but it can also be difficult—especially for those experiencing violence, loss, or uncertainty. Please know you are not alone. Our doors, hotline, and shelter remain open 24/7, every day of the year, so survivors can access safety, support, and hope whenever they need it.

Thank you to our staff, volunteers, partners, and supporters whose generosity and dedication make this possible. Together, we are working to eliminate racism, empower women, and create a more just and equitable community for all.

From our YWCA family to yours, happy holidays and a hopeful New Year.

🎄 A huge thank IBEW 668 for stopping by YWCA Greater Lafayette’s Domestic Violence Shelter with a sleigh full of toys! Your generosity is going to make Christmas morning extra special, and the kids will be so excited when they see what’s waiting for them on Christmas Day. Moments like this truly brighten spirits and remind our families how supported they are by this amazing community. ❤️🎁

Our staff at YWCA Greater Lafayette enjoyed an employee Christmas party last week filled with White Elephant gifts (fun desk trinkets with silly noises 😂), an ugly Christmas sweater contest, great food, and meaningful bonding time. Happy holidays to all! 🎄✨

Indiana Canine Assistant Network brought three incredible dogs to our Domestic Violence Shelter. We hope this is the beginning of an amazing partnership, creating real-world training opportunities for the dogs while providing comfort and connection for our residents and their children. From dogs playing card games to playful puppy energy, it was truly an afternoon of joy. Thank you to Brian Beck for the introduction! ICAN

YWCA Greater Lafayette invites our community to join in Homeless Persons’ Memorial Day, a time dedicated to remembering neighbors who experienced homelessness and passed away this year. As part of our mission to empower women and eliminate racism, we also acknowledge a difficult truth: domestic violence is one of the leading causes of homelessness for women and families. This day serves as a reminder of why our advocacy, services, and collective action matter.

While the national observance falls on Sunday, December 21, the Greater Lafayette gathering will take place:

📅 Monday, December 22
🕐 1:00 PM
📍 N 12th St between Salem & Union, Lafayette

During this brief vigil, we will honor the lives lost, recognize the ongoing crisis of housing instability, and stand with those still searching for safety and stability. We welcome all who wish to join us in reflection, solidarity, and remembrance.
