The Center for Women's and Gender Equity (CWGE) honors gender as a central identity and engages critical women's and gender issues, while challenging systems of inequity and advocating for change at the University of Northern Colorado.

We accomplish this by:

educating our campus community on topics and issues related to the experiences of women, trans and non-binary students

providing an inclusive and validating space

engaging in conversations about the impacts of sexism, cissexism and misogyny

empowering student voices to advocate for and create gender equity at UNC

In collaboration with other campus partners that include the university cultural and resource centers, academic departments, and other units within the division of student affairs, the CWGE builds community by supporting students in deepening their understanding of social justice and gender equity in order to be effective advocates for changes on their campus and in their communities.

The CWGE supports an inclusive learning environment where diversity and individual differences are understood, respected, appreciated, and recognized as a source of strength. We expect that students, administrators, and staff within the CWGE will respect differences and demonstrate diligence in understanding how other peoples perspectives, behaviors, and worldviews may be different from ones own.

Your gift will support the CWGEs distribution of free resources to students, which consists of pregnancy tests, contraceptive barriers, and menstrual hygiene products. Additionally, your support will be utilized for speaker fees and other programming for future events and engagement activities at UNC.

We hope you will considering supporting the CWGE during Giving Bearnanza and help us to continue supporting UNC students.
