Starting the conversation

Welcome.

The YWCA of Charleston invites you on this journey where we hope to discuss social issues and discover solutions to injustices that occur here in our community. From time to time, we will invite experts, colleagues, local activists and leaders to lead us in this conversation. In order for this to be a conversation, we must have dialogue. Dialogue can only occur when two or more people are discussing a topic. Otherwise, it simply becomes a monologue. We aren't looking to stand on a soapbox. We're looking to start a conversation that will then hopefully ignite passion within you, which will lead to community activism and to changing our world.

In this dialogue, we expect we'll meet new people; likely make new friends; catch up with old friends and maybe even discover a little something about ourselves and the world in which we live, work and play. Welcome to the YWCA of Charleston's blog: empowering perspectives.
