The Centre
The Lounge Area: Open 24/7 to all self identified women has a great napping, chatting, and study area filled with chairs, couches, and blankets as well as a fully equiped kitchen. We also offer a phone, sanitary napkins, condoms, tea, coffee, and informational pamphlets - all for free!
The lounge is also always looking for donations so if you have some cutlery or couches, blankets or books you no longer need please get in touch with us.
The Resource Office: Open to all students.
Monday - Thursday 10:30 - 5:30 (tentative)
From this office we offer students an amazing library with over 5000 resources as well as crisis peer support and referals. All of our volunteer programming and events are also organized out of this area. Feel free to come talk to us anytime.
The SFU Women's Centre is staffed by the Centre Coordinator and Resource Assistant.

A Proud Member of the Rotunda
Located between the Gym and the Maggie Benston Centre, the Rotunda is a space where students can meet to organize and socialize on campus. Attached to the Rotunda are 6 groups: the Women's Centre, Out On Campus, the First Nations Student Association, SFPIRG, CJSF, and African Carribean Heritage Students' Association, each of which contribute immesurably to the student experience on campus, and are great allies of the Women's Centre. To learn more about the Rotunda groups please visit www.studentrotunda.ca.
The Women's Centre is 100% funded by all SFU students!
