About Us

Who we are

The Women's Resource Center (WRC) is an agency of Student Government. The WRC was founded in 1997 as a centralized, easily accessible place for women at UT to find resources to solve their problems, address their needs, and achieve their goals. The mission of the WRC is to create a safe place that addresses the needs of women of all backgrounds, races, classes, ages, sexual orientations, political ideologies, religious beliefs, and physical abilities. The WRC raises awareness of and facilitates open discussion about gender issues by providing a forum to explore and exchange ideas and experiences among members of the UT community. The WRC also establishes a supportive network of campus and community resources for women.

The WRC Coalition is the group of student volunteers which staffs and runs the WRC. Our goal is to establish a vital, diverse, growing community of students which make the WRC a stronger force for women's community and equality at UT.
