Mission:ÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌýÌý
Our mission is to provide a safe and supportive place to advance women’s equality and build community through sharing, learning and teaching where all experiences are valued, and everyone is offered the resources necessary to make informed choices.

Vision:
The Women’s Resource Centre strives to achieve equality at the ²ÝÝ®ÎÛÊÓƵµ¼º½ and to create a more inclusive campus environment where each individual’s agency and voice are nurtured to contribute to the collective spirit of a community where citizenship and leadership is made possible for all, regardless of gender.

Values:
The Women’s Resource Centre is first and foremost a place of kindness.  We celebrate diversity based on – but not limited to – gender, ethnicity, race, class, ability age and sexual orientation and we believe that the key to achieving empowerment is through the cycle of reflection and action, creating positive social change.
