The University of Tennessee at Martin provides a supportive environment for students, faculty, and staff to engage in dialogue, develop skills, and pursue personal and professional growth. Committed to fostering a culture of positivity, safety, and empowerment through leadership and community engagement, the "Center" offers educational programming, promotes meaningful campus connections, and strengthens ties between the university and the broader community. It provides a safe and welcoming space where all students feel a strong sense of belonging, are well-informed about campus resources, and gain the confidence and self-advocacy skills essential for success beyond the university.
We welcome and encourage all students to attend our programs, volunteer, study, or simply stop by and connect with the CommUnity Center!
The CommUnity Center offers a wide variety of programs and events for all students, faculty, and staff. The services the Center provide are directed toward students, but anyone in the campus community may take advantage of the services we provide.
The CommUnity Center partners with WRAP to provide prevention and awareness programs to the campus community. Look for programs in October for Domestic Violence Awareness Month and April for Sexual Assault Awareness Month.
The Center provides free period supplies to any student who requires them. Brown bags with supplies are located just outside the center for discrete and easy access. In addition, we have full boxes available in the Center and within the residence halls. We hold a donation drive each October to refill our supplies, but we will accept donations anytime.
The Center provides space for a WRAP advocate to hold weekly office hours in order to meet with participants on campus when necessary. Contact the CommUnity Center director for help!
