Women's Center at Virginia Tech

In the spring of 2024, we celebrated our 30th anniversary! Founded in 1994, we serve the Virginia Tech community in creating an affirming and supportive environment through advocacy and education. Our programs and services are available to all members of the Virginia Tech community!

Program Spotlight: Remember what it was like to be in middle school? Yeah, so do we. That’s why we’re such big fans of AWARE, a Women’s Center program that connects undergraduate mentors with local middle schoolers for listening, guidance, and real talk. Your donation will help girls in our community – and the VT women who mentor them – to thrive! We appreciate your support!

Resources for Working Parents

It is now easy to submit a request directly to join the working parents listserv. Approvals generally happen within 2 business days. There is also a working parents Facebook page, with lots of information, resources, and updates. Connecting with other working parents makes everything just a little bit easier!
