Campus Community Centers and Programs
The Black Resource Center, The Raza Resource Centro, The Women’s Center, The Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Resource Center, The Cross-Cultural Center, Asian Pacific Islander Middle Eastern Desi American Program, and Paths Program are collectively known as the Campus Community Centers and Programs.
We effect institutional change by challenging traditional notions of diversity and historical power structures. As places of engagement and belonging, we facilitate interactive learning, promote self-awareness, foster leadership, and encourage dialogue through our work with undergraduate and graduate students, staff, faculty, alumni, and the San Diego Community, we contribute towards the creation of a socially just campus climate.
It is valuing differences and recognizing commonalities that energize and drive the overall work of the Campus Community Centers and Programs. By understanding and appreciating our diverse histories and experiences, we have found the common connections that bring us together to create strong communities.
Women’s Center
Since opening in 1996, the center has been a space where people work collaboratively to foster the development of diverse groups of women. We strive to increase awareness of issues affecting women and men while creating a sense of community at UCSD.

The Intertribal Center aims to leverage existing resources to create a sense of place and community and provide an important support system for American Indian/Alaskan Native/Indigenous students on campus and to develop positive relationships with our local tribal communities. The Intertribal Resource Center is rooted in a student movement that sought to increase the presence of Native American students on campus and to provide a resource on campus to meet the unique and diverse needs of Native American students.
