Feminist Resources

* Feminist Activist Resources on the Net

This guide connects Feminists to useful internet resources, especially other indexes. It includes information on communicating with other feminists, current issues/news, women's organizations, an Activist Calendar, suggestions for action, and feminism fun and games.

* FeMiNa

FeMiNa provides women with a comprehensive, searchable directory of links to female-friendly sites and information on the World Wide Web. It claims to be the only website of its kind and offers new features such as Classifieds, Site Reviews, Woman's Site of the Week, and more.

* Feminism and Women's Resources

This Canadian site offers listings of many of the feminism, women's studies, or women-related sources. They recently added hundreds of new links to this attractive site. Their categories include Women's Organizations; Women's Resources; Other Collections of Links; Other Organizations and Links of Interest; and On A Less Serious Note

* The Feminist Majority

This site's many sections include: Arts, Literature, and Entertainment Center; News & Events; Internet Gateway; Research Center; University Network; 911 for Women; Take Action!; Feminist Census; Career Center; Budget Center; and Breast Cancer Center. I especially like the Daily Feminist News listings and The Feminist Events Calendar. The latter enables you to select by date, or to conduct a search by topic or geographic location for events of interest to you.

* Feminist.com

This site offers information on activism, health issues, articles, lists women owned businesses, and resources/links. They are an incubator for other organizations establishing a web presence. Their best feature is a database of thousands of resources around the nation for: Abortion, Adoption, AIDS, Baby Care, Battered Women, Birth Control, Child Abuse, Crisis Services, Eating Disorders, Health care practitioners, Women's Organizations/ Services, Youth, and more. Based on your city/state, the database generates names, numbers and addresses of the nearest resources, plus interactive maps of how to get there.
