Modern Feminists (2009)
This is an excerpt from the paper...
Today's feminists continue to focus on services and informal service agencies to help advance social justice for all women that political activism does not achieve in and of itself. The Women's Resource and Research Center (WRCC) at California State University, Northridge (CSUN), represents such a services agency. The WRCC offers informal education, support, and referral information for diverse women from varied socioeconomic backgrounds. These broad categories cover a wide range of challenges and issues unique to college teens and young women, from self-esteem and body image to sexual health and academics. Research shows that where confidence, stress, and economics are concerned, college women lag behind men in confidence, are more stressed due to a number of issues, and make less than their male peers. A feminist analysis of the services offered to the community by WRCC shows that the agency is in keeping with current feminist ideology to advance social justice for women. A conclusion offers various recommendations for the WRCC from a feminist perspective, designed to broaden the agency's services to address women's issues that are described as significant in the professional literature. According to Linda J. Sax (2007), college women still face many obstacles in reaching their full potential. Feminism attempts to advance social justice by helping women overcome barriers or obstacles to reaching their full pot
