Membership – Terms & Conditions

• By joining the Women’s Resource Centre (WRC) membership, you commit to upholding our values, vision and mission. 
• As a member, you are entitled to the benefits outlined in your membership package, subject to availability.
• Community Membership is for individuals and organisations committed to women’s rights, equality, activism, and social justice. This includes those who wish to stay informed and engaged, activists, or professionals in the sector or related industries.
