YWCA Golden Gate Silicon Valley

Since 2000, the fiftyplus employment support program has empowered women over 50 toward economic self-sufficiency by offering job readiness training and job placement support. Each year we support an average of 450 mature women in the San Francisco bay area with job readiness classes, computer skills training, job clubs, employer forums, resume reviews, mock interviews and one-on-one support that leads to placement and retention. The program has proven successful at preparing older job seekers to find and secure stable employment where they earn a living wage, while minimizing the amount of time our clients are unemployed. In fy23, this program will complete its final management transition to Ywca Golden Gate Silicon Valley under the 2019 legal integration.

The Ywca San Francisco & Marin owns a property in San Francisco (Ywca apartments, inc.). The project is subsidized under section 8 housing assistance payments by hud.
