V-Day is a global movement to stop violence against women and girls. The 'V' in V-Day stands for Victory, Valentine and Vagina. www.vday.org. As part of V-Day the performance will benefit organizations working to end gendered violence: 10% of the proceeds will go toward the V-Day Spotlight Campaign for Women in the Democratic Republic of Congo and remaining proceeds will be split between two amazing, local organizations, My Sister's House & Sexual Assault & Domestic Violence Center of Yolo County (SADVAC). Sponsored by the WRRC & CWR. If you would like more information about V-Day or any of these organizations, please contact the Women's Center, (530) 752-3372.


VOICE YOUR CONCERN FOR THE BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT PROGRAM
At this point, student organizations such as ASUCD and GSA have unanimously voted to write formal letters expressing their support of continuing the UCD Breastfeeding Support Program. The Status of Women at Davis Administrative Advisory Committee (SWADAAC) has also made this vital resource for women on campus the committee's top priority for this year. If you share this concern, please sign the Women's Resources & Research Center's e-petition:

Click Here to Keep the Breastfeeding Support Program

This petition will be delivered to Karen Hull, Associate Vice Chancellor of Human Resources and let your voice be heard!

Currently, WorkLife is exploring partnerships with faculty, as well as seeking funding both on and off-campus to continue this program beyond June 2010. If you have creative ideas about funding sources and/or you or your organization would like to get more involved in advocating or raising funds for this resource, please contact Joy Evans at joyevans@ucdavis.edu, or drop by the Women's Center.
