The Young Women’s Alliance (YWA) is a young professional’s organization that has been a staple of the Austin community for over 20 years. YWA seeks to empower its members to develop personally and professionally by offering educational programs, access to engaging speakers and community leaders, and by creating a platform for women professionals to connect and network. Community involvement is likewise at the forefront of YWA. All members are encouraged to volunteer with local nonprofits, including our non-profit partner the Girls Empowerment Network, emphasizing our belief that strong leaders are created not only through success in their careers but by giving back to the community that helped them thrive.
