What We Do
The Women and Gender Resource Center serves ETSU faculty, staff and students as well as the larger community. ALL ARE WELCOME! We serve people of all genders while uplifting cis and trans women, girls, nonbinary and femme individuals.Through campus and community organization partnerships, the Center may provide resource referrals both on and off campus and the Center itself (located in the Culp Center, room 215) is designed to enable patrons to rest, relax and rejeuvenate in a calm, peaceful environment.
