Gifts to Center for Women, Gender and Sexuality contribute to...
Today, we support an inclusive community for all.
Founded in 1970 as the Women’s Referral Center, the Center for Women, Gender & Sexuality is the second-oldest collegiate women’s center in the country. Rooted in activism, its founders led contraceptive and abortion rights advocacy and education even before the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision. Over four decades, the Center evolved—becoming the Women’s Center, then the Women’s Resource Center in 1996, and finally the Center for Women, Gender & Sexuality in 2011—each transformation reflecting a broader, more inclusive mission to support and empower students.
Your support of CWGS during UMassD helps foster a supportive and inclusive community at UMass Dartmouth by offering a safe space to engage in dialogue on social justice issues affecting women and the LGBTQIA+ community, and provide health-related resources and referrals, educational programming on women's and LGBTQIA+ history and current issues, and advocacy for survivors of sexual violence.
Extraordinary is what we do at UMass Dartmouth, and today, you can be a part of it!
