Women's Programs
Women's Programs provides a wide variety of services and resources throughout the year. We offer assistance or referrals in many areas, including: starting college or returning to school after time away; child care; financial aid; scholarships; sexual harassment and discrimination; dating and domestic violence; rape and sexual assault; legal issues; public assistance; and academic matters. Women’s Programs loans books/calculators to students who are not getting funding elsewhere and can’t afford to purchase them.
