Cambridge Women's Center Details
Our Philosophy We believe that attaining gender equality requires the elimination of all oppressions. We work to raise awareness about issues affecting women and other oppressed groups. We provide space for the empowerment, growth, and encouragement of women. We are dedicated to bringing about social and economic justice. Therefore, we prioritize group empowerment over the desires of individuals. Our Mission The goal of the Women's Center is justice. We celebrate the victories, voices, and the survival of women - individually and collectively. Our mission is: To provide women with the resources and support they need to emerge from conditions of domestic violence, sexual abuse, poverty, discrimination, social isolation, and degradation. To challenge and change the attitudes, actions, and institutions that subjugate women. Our History During the 60's and 70's, women experienced a pressing need for information, resources, and support to fight the discrimination they experienced. They also sought a space for activism. In 1971, a large group of women dramatized this need through direct action by seizing an abandoned, Harvard-owned building on Memorial Drive. Inspired by their actions and subsequent organizing efforts, many local supporters generously contributed toward the purchase of 46 Pleasant Street in Cambridge - the Women's Center.
