The Women’s Resource Center (WRC) opened on the UBC Okanagan campus in 2003 and continues to provide services to students through the SUO. All services offered by the WRC are paraprofessionals, however, the WRC provides a safe place on campus for women and those who identify as female, to find a supportive environment and connections to other resources on and off campus. The WRC annually initiates many events, campaigns, and fundraisers all to better the lives of women primarily on campus, while maintaining connections to the local, national and international scale.
The vision of the WRC is to provide increasingly professional and continued organised events from year to year and to maintain a standard of function through practising continuity in a place where turnover is high.
