Our Guiding Principles

Self-determination

We believe that everyone wants the opportunity to shape their our own life stories. We offer opportunities for women to explore, challenge, and make decisions about their futures in an atmosphere of mutual respect.

Confidence

We encourage intelligent, courageous, resilient, creative, and resourceful women to discover and amplify their inherent strengths.

Connections

We bring together women and resources to construct a continuum of support. Relationships nurture our desire to belong and promote an ongoing sense of integrity and well‐being.

Change

We work with women to distinguish individual problems from systemic problems, and to carry out individual and social change. Each of us actively seeks skills and resources that enable us to adapt to a complex and changing world.

Our Vision

Mission Statement

The Women’s Center promotes self-determination for women and families by providing professional services that build confidence, strengthen connections, and create positive change.

Our Vision

Women will triumph over social and economic inequality to reach our full potential.
