UH Women & Gender Resource Center

🚨 New Office Alert! 🚨

Welcome to the Cougar Parent & Family Engagement Center, where every Cougar has a village! 🐾✨

If you’ve been a part of our community before, we’re so grateful you’re still here as we continue growing and showing up for our Cougar families in new ways.

We’re here as a lounge and study space, offering free menstrual products, safe s*x items, baby items including diapers and wipes, a free thrift closet, and connections to lactation rooms, all designed to support our Cougar families.

We can’t wait to continue this journey with you! 💛

Denim Day is tomorrow! 👖✨
Show your support by rocking your favorite denim — jeans, jackets, skirts, whatever makes you feel confident. 💙
Every piece worn is a stand against s*xual violence and a show of solidarity with survivors.
Let’s flood campus with denim and make a statement together! ✊
Don’t forget to tag us to show off your denim looks! 💥✨

🚨 Location Change! Hey everyone, due to weather updates, Take Back The Night will now be held in Student Center South room B12. See you all there this Thursday evening for an impactful night!
