Hello Huskies!

Are you passionate about women’s health and interested in making a real impact on campus and beyond? WECARE (Women Empowerment through Collaboration, Awareness & Resources for Education) is a student organization focused on expanding access to women’s health resources, raising awareness, and supporting communities both locally and globally.

Through our initiatives, we’ve helped fund HPV vaccines for girls in India and worked to make free pregnancy tests accessible to UW students. This spring quarter, we’re excited to continue building community and spreading awareness through several upcoming events.
