BABES Network, A Program of the YWCA of
Seattle ● King County ● Snohomish County
BABES Network-YWCA is a peer led program, a
sisterhood of women facing HIV together. Founded on the concept that HIV+ women
are uniquely
qualified to understand and encourage one another, BABES was
started by a diverse group of HIV positive women who came together to share
information, experiences, and support. BABES reduces
isolation, promotes self-empowerment, enhances quality of life, and serves the
needs of
women living with HIV by providing peer support, advocacy,
education and outreach. www.babesnetwork.org
