Engagement

We want to support faculty, staff, and students with caregiving responsibilities. Please access the links below for information about campus resources.

Virginia Tech supports the mission of The Virginia Network through VT Women Connect (VTWC). VTWC is an informal network that promotes, develops and supports Virginia Tech’s professional women by providing a forum to forge relationships, develop supportive networks, and share ideas and information. We engage with women who are in leadership and management roles, as well as those who aspire to these roles, Mary Grace Campos, Director of the College Access Collaborative and Heidi Lane, Assistant Dean of Clinical Skills at the Virginia Tech Carilion School of Medicine, serve as Virginia Tech’s Institutional Representatives to the Virginia Network and catalysts for activities here on the Virginia Tech campus.

The goal of The Virginia Network is to promote women's leadership in higher education and throughout society as a whole; to create an educational, social, and political climate in which women, in all their diversity, can participate equally with men in setting public agendas; to facilitate connections among women in various sectors of higher education and with other organizations and networks with shared goals on the institutional, state, regional, professional, national, and international levels; and to foster strategic alliances and facilitate effective partnerships between women and men in the workplace.

The Women's Caucus is currently vetting a new mission and vision statements.

The goal of the Women's Community Center Newsletter is to provide you with timely updates on information, support resources, and programs that are available to help support you in both your professional and personal life.
