I'm the author of the article, and wish to clarify where I got some of my information in hopes that the neutrality of my article will no longer be disputed.

As I stated in my about me page, I am affiliated with Women's Way. I want to be upfront about that. However, I am not a paid employee, just a summer intern. I chose to write a Wikipedia entry about the organization because I think unbiased information about it should be easily accessible as it is very prominent in the Philadelphia area. I was also fascinated with Women's Way's history. I did not write the article intending to advertise or promote Women's Way, merely to clarify its impact and purpose in a way the website and other sources on the internet do not. Though I support Women's Way and find its causes to be more than worthwhile, I did my best to remain unbiased while writing.

My main source of information was Women's Way itself. I was in a unique position, possessing the ability to sort through Women's Way's detailed records and speak with staff members, one of whom has been with Women's Way since 1981. Clearly, this information is difficult to site. Where I could I researched other articles to back up the information I provided, but that was not possible in every case. I assure you that all information was obtained from credible resources. Again, I did my best in going through these resources to glean only information from them, not bias. I think this method made my article stronger, not weaker.

I will continue in my research online and hopefully come up with more sources. In the mean time, I hope this is enough to assure readers that information I posted is accurate.
