We strive to enhance the lives of women and girls by respecting individuality, eliminating racism, celebrating diversity, and encouraging active participation in improving our communities. We are committed to providing programs that promote economic independence, personal fulfillment and confident adulthood. For children's services, we offer center-based child care, site-based and teen enrichment programs, group mentoring and leadership development through community service. Our programs for women include wellness services and an economic advancement program.

The YWCA Malden is an innovator among community-based groups in Malden, with more than 75 years of experience creating unique programs that help the city’s low-income and at-risk populations. Responding to disparities that impact girls, women, and populations of color, the YWCA creates meaningful partnerships to develop and implement creative program models, many of which have the potential for replication beyond the Malden community. It is through this pioneering work that the YWCA fulfills its mission of Eliminating Racism, Empowering Women and Girls.
