Hello WRC Community,
Happy Summer! We are so excited to share the employment opportunities that we have for the 2024-2025 academic year.
Working at the Women's Resource Center is a wonderful opportunity to work on campus and experience student leadership within a social justice & feminist politic grounded department. We have a tightly-knit professional staff team and are looking for students who are eager to use their talents and learn new skills with us.
The Women's Resource Center offers a dynamic and unique workplace.

Work at the WRC can be fast-paced, but it is rewarding, enriching, and excellent preparation for future work - in communities, in organizations, and in educational institutions.
