About
PROMOTING ACCESS
A vibrant, stimulating learning community is central to the mission and goals of the
University of Georgia, and our work to uphold that ideal is continuous. To address
contemporary issues faced by female students, faculty, and staff, the University developed
this web portal and other resources to promote awareness and access to the wide range
of services and programs available to women.
Women.uga.edu highlights women’s services, organizations, programs, and events across
campus. It provides a hub for safety information, community support, and advocacy
for women.

University has identified a central point of contact: Janice Davis Barham, associate

for patient services at the University Health Center, and Karen Saunders, student
