Multicultural & Diversity Resource Center

  • The Multicultural & Diversity Resource Center (MDRC) aims to advance a welcoming and inclusive learning environment where individual identities are valued and celebrated, fostering a sense of community among all members of Mt. Hood Community College.

    The MDRC provides a space dedicated to the well-being and success of all members of our community representing various backgrounds. Our work is rooted in social justice, recognizing and acknowledging that various communities across time have been historically marginalized; therefore, we work to dismantle systems of oppression through educational programming and intentionally support communities facing systemic barriers.

    We are excited to walk alongside you as you pursue your passions and goals while at Mt. Hood Community College. Our work in the MDRC centers on fostering an inclusive environment where the members of our community feel empowered to be themselves and advocate for their needs. We support members of our community representing all backgrounds by facilitating programming which enhances understanding of diversity, equity, and inclusion, providing a variety of resources within the Center, and connecting individuals to on- and off- campus resources. We are here to advocate on behalf of our community, so let us know what you need to thrive on campus.
