YWCA Greater Green Bay

★Brandon Strickland

Let me preface this by saying two things: my experiences here are very limited. I was only able to visit the YWCA a small number of times as part of a short program I was involved in. Secondly, I am sure the YWCA has many positive programs and makes many contributions to the community. I will only be reviewing the treatment I received by the staff I encountered in my visits here. It seems as though the staff consists mainly of women over the age of 114. And those women seemed, to me anyway, to harbor a great disdain for anybody of the male persuasion and the treatment I received was definitely reflective of this. There is a thrift store located upstairs and on one of my visits there with a girlfriend she wanted me to come up there with her while she looked for some clothing and other items. One of the ahem "elderly" workers up there saw that a man had entered her domain and proceeded to berate me for having the audacity to enter what I had assumed was a retail establishment open for all. She stopped short of beating me into the elevator with a broom but only just. It was very embarrassing for everyone around. I assume she failed her interview at Target.

I've gone here for services. The people are amazing. They kindness goes beyond the expectation of their "job title". They really do have your best interest in mind

I almost put my 4 year old in the daycare. When I went to do the tour I had a bad feeling in my stomach about it. I don't like how secluded the kids are and how you have to go through an elevator to the top floor to get your child and how dingy and dark it felt there. I also don't agree with kids going for walks around downtown area with all the homeless people walking around and doing drugs hanging around the parks. When the instructor was showing me a classroom with 3-4 kids in it another teacher was yelling at the kids in anger and seemed pretty irritable that I was even in the room and witnessed it. They seem very unprofessional and have zero patience.

I was looking for the negative 0 star option but of course that wasn’t a option, however i am completely disgusted with the ywca downtown location my 4 year old neice had swim lessons and when she got in the pool she accidentally peed into the pool… and the swim instructor felt it on her leg, the swim teacher said she wasn’t gonna tolerate that behavior, my 4 year old neice accidentally urinating through her little swimmer diaper and in to the water when she hit the pool, the swim teacher said she had to get out and leave right then and there or sit on the side and watch because that isn’t tolerated. This swim teacher stated my 4 year old little niece did it on purpose she said it was intentional. I was completely shocked I was completely speechless. (I can’t remember this swim teachers name I wanna say Leanne?” Shame on you YWCA

Madison St. boutique is Green Bay’s best kept secret, not only because of the amazing clothing, shoes and accessories, but the staff. Everyone working there has been lovely, especially Catherine S. What a gem! Her passion for empowering women and their greater good shows in her knowledge and pride of what she is doing . More Importantly her words. It is a joy to see now days.
