Founded in 1970, the UMass Dartmouth Women's Resource Center provides resources that help to create an educational atmosphere, rich in visible role models and free of sexual inequities, where women can grow to their full potential. The center provides cultural opportunities that further women's personal and professional development and promotes a broader understanding of the diverse experiences of all women. The Women's Resource Center is open during the school year, Monday through Friday days, and evenings Monday through Thursday. In the summer, we are open Monday - Friday days. The Center is staffed by a Director, part-time secretary, work study students, interns, contract learning students and volunteers.
Membership is open to anyone.
