I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

The Women's Center is located in the Student Union Annex on the corner of University Drive and Lincoln Avenue directly across from the main Student Union building. The Women's Center provides an environment that is welcoming and safe to all university and community members. While our primary mission is to support female students in their personal and academic development, we cannot do this alone. Boise State University needs men and women, students, faculty and staff to come together to work toward positive change. The coordinator also serves as a rape crisis advocate, supporting victims and survivors of sexual assaults. If you would like to get involved with the Women's Center, please contact the coordinator at 208-426-4259.
