It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome you to the Women's Initiative Project Center at Southern University – Baton Rouge Campus! We strive to create an environment in which all women students and their cohorts feel empowered, supported, and an integral part of the University.

 Students can expect the Women's Initiative Project Center to be a place where programs and services are cultivated organically from student-centered priorities.  Students can expect to receive quality programming relevant to women of all ethnicities to include:

·                     Domestic Violence Prevention & Intervention

·                     Career exploration of opportunities for women in the workforce

·                     Women’s Health Issues

·                     Psychosocial Development

·                     Campus Women Organizations

·                     Campus & Community Resources

I encourage you to drop by the center to meet our staff. In addition, all students are welcome to join any of our volunteer committees:

Ø      Crisis Hot Line Squad

Ø      Drama Team

Ø      Hospitality Committee

Ø      Peer Counselors

There are also opportunities to work with the center on programs, or even initiate a project. There are endless ways to make the Women's Initiative Project Center a significant part of your Southern experience; we are looking forward to meeting you!

Mrs. Cynthia Tarver, Director
