Register for the YWCA 2022 Stand Against Racism Challenge

We are excited to announce that registration for the 2022 Stand Against Racism Challenge

is NOW LIVE!

Register now by visiting the Stand Against Racism homepage to gain access the "Join the Challenge" registration tool! Once you have selected your applicable region (Select west) or local YWCA using the drop-down menu, you will be routed directly to the appropriate registration page to sign up for this year's challenge.

Launching April 4, the Stand Against Racism Challenge is a virtual learning tool designed to create dedicated time and space to build more effective social justice habits, particularly those dealing with issues of race, power, privilege, and leadership. Participants will have the opportunity to log on to the challenge via phone app or by visiting the challenge website and are presented with challenges such as reading an article, listening to a podcast, reflecting on personal experience, and more! This year’s theme merges five focus areas which will guide and inform our racial equity work including civic engagement, economic development, education, healthcare, and representation in media.

The Stand Against Racism Challenge is an essential part of YWCA's annual Stand Against Racism taking place from April 28 - May 1 and informs our theme: We Can’t Wait: Equity and Justice Now! If you haven't already, visit the homepage to take the Stand Against Racism pledge and tell Congress to take action on key issues.

Thank you for helping us build a world where all people are seen as equal, powerful, and unstoppable.
