Mission Statement

It is the mission of the WRC to support all Evergreen women and female identified persons as they work towards their educational goals. In order to do this, we must actively combat all forms of oppression that affect women and the greater campus community.

WRC History

The Evergreen Women's Resource Center is one of the oldest student organizations on campus; it has been active since the seventies. The WRC is much more than a student group, it has evolved from its roots as a woman's center to a safe space for all woman-identified and female bodied people on campus. It is accessible for those seeking books, zines, menstrual products, pregnancy tests, referrals and support. The events that the WRC sponsors promote a cohesive woman's community on campus.

We are creating this online space so that people who may be less comfortable with face-to-face interaction can find information about who we are and what we do - as well as asking any questions they may want answers to or help with.

This is also a way for us to keep interested persons up to date with what the WRC has been doing - so welcome!

If you have any questions/commentary please feel free to email wrc@riseup.net.
