Each year, the YWCA honors a select group of women who are dedicated to improving our community and the lives of women, children, and families living in it. For more than a quarter of a century, the YWCA has welcomed these women into the Academy for Women of Achievement. The 2017 class was honored during the 26th annual AWA ceremony at the Omni Nashville Hotel.
