Women's Center Summer 2021 Hours of Operation:
Through most of the summer, the Women's Center will continue to provide support and services virtually Monday through Friday. We encourage campus community members to contact us through email at womenscenter@umbc.edu or via phone at 410-455-2714. Staff will generally be most available between the hours of 10am-4pm. We appreciate your patience in our response to your email or returning your phone call.
Beginning the week of August 9th and until the start of the fall semester, the Women's Center lounge will open with our traditional summer hours of Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday from 10am-3pm.
Finally, you can experience those new comfy couches! Our usual plates/mugs/utensils will not be available so please bring your own if you plan on drinking or eating in the space. Outside of these lounge hours, Women's Center staff are still available to meet and connect with the UMBC community as requested (see more below).
The Women's Center lactation room continues to be available by reservation. For details, contact us at womenscenter@umbc.edu.
Individualized Support Meetings:
Women's Center professional staff are available for individual meetings and support which we can provide via phone or video chat and in some cases in-person; to schedule an appointment, email womenscenter@umbc.edu or call 410-455-2714. If you are already working with a specific staff member and need to set up additional meetings, feel free to reach out to the staff member you have been working with directly (via email or even g-chat!).
Visit our website for all the ways we can provide support.
If you haven't already, follow us on social media where we're sharing resources and communicating with our community!
Please also feel free to communicate with us through any of these channels.
