The UC Women’s Center

The UC Women’s Center has a long history at the University of Cincinnati. Established in 1978 as Women’s Programs and Services, the office served as a referral center for female students. The small, initial staff connected students and staff to resources and events that were off-campus. Over the years, the center’s staff grew and the office’s programs and opportunities grew with it.
