The Women’s, Gender, & Center at UMBC advances gender equity from an intersectional feminist perspective through co-curricular programming, support services, and advocacy for marginalized individuals and communities. We prioritize critical social justice as our community value, with a deliberate focus on women, gender, anti-racism, and feminism.

All are welcome as long as they respect our community. Their experiences. Their stories. Their potential.

During the fall and spring semesters, the Women’s, Gender, & Equity Center lounge is open for community members to spend time in our lounge, attend events, or meet with our staff.

Please note that the Women’s, Gender, & Equity Center lounge may not be available when the space is reserved for closed meetings. Please consult our calendar to help you plan your visit ahead of time.

Staff are also available to provide support and services virtually. We encourage campus community members seeking virtual services to contact us through email at womenscenter@umbc.edu or via phone at 410-455-2714. Staff will generally be most available between the hours of 10am-4pm. We appreciate your patience in our response to your email or returning your phone call.

Please note: UMBC is committed to creating an accessible and inclusive environment for all students, staff, faculty, and visitors. If you have difficulties accessing any of the materials on our site, please contact us so that we can provide an alternative format and remedy any accessibility challenges.
