Women's Resource Center's
California State University, Fresno
Mission and Goals
The Women's Resource Center was established to
enhance the learning and work experiences of women in the university
community, It seeks to provide a supportive environment of
interaction and self-discovery through a wide range of campus
activities.
The center serves the full spectrum of university women -students,
staff, faculty and administrators. Men are encouraged to participate
in the center's activities for the purpose of supporting
organizational goals and promoting among their peers, the
recognition of sexism, racism, heterosexism and other forms of
discrimination against women.
Goals
 |
To provide a physical space in which women can
share with each other, learn in a collaborative rather than
competitive fashion, and seek growth-promoting experiences
consistent with the unique modes of learning and communication. |
 |
To provide referral and peer counseling support
services to women who are coping with personal transitions,
crisis or any other life experiences for which they need
nonjudgmental guidance and support. |

institutional sexism, racism, heterosexism, classism and other
forms of prejudice and discrimination which affect all of us in
a university community. |
 |
To promote choices and expanded options for

in an ongoing advocacy role through its association with the
