Founded in 1974, the Women’s Center was established to:
Dismantle, from a feminist perspective, all forms of oppression, including but not limited to those based on ability, age, class, ethnicity, gender, race, and sexual orientation.
Advocate for an equitable environment free from violence and harassment based on gender, race, and sexual orientation.
Create an anti-racist, non-sexist, queer-affirmative space where all people can feel valued and safe.
Facilitate and strengthen connections among people across lines of difference through programming and educational campaigns.
Integrate an appreciation of Women's Gender and Multicultural Studies across the disciplines.

Welcome Back, Ramapo!

Welcome back to a new semester at the Women's Center! From now until the end of the semester this blog will be updated regularly Monday-Friday by the Women's Center staff and volunteers so get ready for a semester of interesting content. If you want to be involved with writing the blog, or helping out around the Center in another way consider coming to our Volunteer Training!

This Sunday, January 30th from 7PM-9:30PM will by Volunteer Training. Volunteers are a very important part of the Women's Center, they are involved in almost every aspect of our daily functioning. Volunteers help to make and post posters for events, maintain our library, update this blog, run events, and more! Volunteer experience can often be used as experiential for classes, looks great on your resume, plus its just fun. Send an e-mail to women@ramapo.edu if you're interested in attending the training.

In addition, anyone who has a suggestion for a post or a fully written post that they'd like to see up here is free to e-mail jgrimald@ramapo.edu. In the e-mail be sure to specify how you'd like the post titled, and how you'd like to be credited.

We're all looking forward to a great semester!
