To schedule an appointment or set up a meeting, please contact us via email or call the Center at 540-231-7806.

To schedule a Zoom meeting with an advocate, please give us a call or send us an email at WCsupport@vt.edu. An advocate will be checking this email Mon-Fri from 8:00 to 5:00 and will connect with you as soon as possible. Please be sure to include your preferred times to connect when contacting the Center.

We are unable to accept in person "walk-ins" during this time but encourage folks to call or email to schedule a virtual "walk-in" appointment via Zoom. If you need immediate assistance, please call the Women's Resource Center of the New River Valley at 540-639-1123.

All programs offered by the Women’s Center for Fall 2020 will be held virtually to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our community members. Our programs and services will be continually evolving to meet the needs of our Virginia Tech community during this fall semester. Please regularly check our website and connect with us on social media to stay up to date with our latest offerings. Below are some of our new virtual programs.

Gen(der) Ed is a bi-weekly podcast hosting conversations that explore the intersection of gender and other identities, and cover topics for our students, faculty, and staff members on leadership, equity, wellbeing, and healthy relationships. Join us in celebrating the experiences, achievements, and diversity within our campus community. 

Listen on your favorite podcast streaming platform. 

(Dis)course is an ongoing dialogue to discuss relevant issues of gender in society, while bringing to the forefront the work and teachings of VT faculty members. By engaging with both traditional “texts", as well as contemporary text, such as TV, new media, etc., we are creating a modern day book club that fosters community, is intentionally intersectional, and contributes to and engages with gendered issues.

Discussion groups are in partnership with the Introduction to Africana Studies classes and will take place via Zoom every other week, with two opportunities to engage during each discussion week.

Sign up for discussions on our website.

Join Hokie Wellness for a two-part program to help parents reduce the stress of parenting and homeschooling during COVID-19 as we move into a new school year.
