Four Centers of Excellence
The Institute for the Advancement of Women and Children stands as a testament to the university's commitment to gender equity and empowerment. Launched under the direction of Mount Mary president Isabelle Cherney in 2023, the Institute is a continuation of the mission begun by the School Sisters of Notre Dame over a century ago. Through its four Centers of Excellence, the Institute provides women with the tools, resources and support they need to thrive personally, academically and professionally.
Please join us for the official launch of the Institute for the Advancement of Women and Children: Carrying the Mission Forward. Through its four Centers of Excellence, the Institute is designed to provide comprehensive tools, resources, and essential support.
