DSU Women’s Resource Center: Spring 2020 Services

By Dr. Florence Bacabac, WRC Director

The Dixie State University Women’s Resource Center’s (WRC) goal is to facilitate access to resources, mentoring, and scholarships available to women across the disciplines. We organize campus events with professional resource speakers and work with community partners to offer additional support. Our overall mission is to help women achieve their academic and professional goals.

This semester they have teamed up with two community partners — DOVE Center and Support the Girls So. Utah — along with other service entities to provide campus support starting January 21.
