Are you interested in advocacy? If so, come volunteer with us at our annual Take Back the Night!

Take Back the Night was started in October of 1975 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with the main goal to protest against gender based harms and reclaim spaces where survivors felt unsafe. At UMBC, the Women’s, Gender, and Equity Center holds its Take Back the Night annually in April.
This year, it will be held on April 16th from 5-8 on Commons Mainstreet.

As a volunteer, you would assist WGEC staff in executing the event and creating a safe space for survivors of gender-based harm and their allies. Volunteers should be invested in cultivating a survivor-supportive space and be aware of the impact they have.
