Celebrating Women's HERstory Month 2026

HER story is our story.

This March, Riverside City College honors the strength, leadership, and lasting impact of women—past, present, and future. Women’s History Month is more than a calendar observance; it’s a reminder that progress is powered by those who challenge norms, uplift communities, and open doors for others.

At RCC, women lead classrooms, programs, initiatives, and movements that shape the future of our campus and beyond. Whether through advocacy, mentorship, innovation, or quiet resilience, their contributions matter—and they deserve to be recognized.

Join us this month as we celebrate the voices, stories, and achievements that continue to move RCC forward. Because when women rise, we all rise.
