What is the Women’s Center?

The mission of the Women’s Center at Bristol Community College is to provide a safe and supportive space of empowerment through advocacy and education. The Women’s center promotes the concept of intersectionality—that gender intersects with all other markers of identity—and thus works to help students understand the complexity of their lives and the lives of others.

This work is done by making the connections between the classroom and the outside world by organizing and facilitating student center programs, workshops, lectures, and seminars aimed at improving self-esteem, developing leadership skills, promoting diversity and raising awareness about women’s and gender issues. The center commits itself to the support and progress of all students in their personal, academic, and career needs.

Student Support Services:

• Community Connect - an initiative to connect with our community partners and their works relevant for our students
• Emotional/Crisis support
