Our Community

The Women’s Resource Center is located in the heart of the New River Valley, a region rich in diversity of peoples, history, and geography. This community has much to offer including access to two state universities (Virginia Tech and Radford University) and a community college system, a low cost of living, and an abundance of recreational options from a robust system of hiking and biking trails, to live music and a vibrant arts scene, to a bounty of local farmers’ markets. More information about the New River Valley can be found by clicking here.

New River Valley communities are proud of their public school systems which offer a variety of opportunities to children and many of which have recently embraced trauma-informed school practices. Incidentally, the public schools have been some of the WRC’s best and most long-standing partners in the work to prevent sexual and domestic violence, with all five school jurisdictions welcoming both the WRC’s children’s counselors and prevention teams on-site for programming for over two decades.
