First-Gen+ Resource Center: Part of the CASE Collective

CASE (CENTERS FOR ADVOCACY AND STUDENT ENGAGEMENT) is a collective effort to educate, connect resources, and develop programming that advocates for all students, ourselves, and each other in order to impact change at structural, institutional, and systemic levels.

The FG+RC is home to three unique programs: U1.0 UW-M First-Generation Program, Lawton Scholars Program, and DREAMERS
MAVRC recognizes the need for support of spouses and children receiving military education benefits in navigating the world of higher education and we work to advocate for this group as well.
Using an intersectional approach to advocate for the agency, education, and empowerment of women-identified students.
A community on campus dedicated to providing social-justice-based education, resources, programming, and support for students of all genders and orientations.
