Creating space where individuals and groups engage each other to achieve a more just world
Creating space where individuals and groups engage each other to achieve a more just world
We enable women to strengthen their voices for self-advocacy, leadership, and action.
Empowerment of Women
We challenge societal assumptions about power, domination, and violence that use race and ethnic differences to create inequality and inequity.
Eradication of Racism
We work to realize a just society and promote activism on behalf of all those who live with injustice.
Prophetic Justice
Grounded in our Christian tradition, we provide a space for cultural expressions and a place at the table where all are included and affirmed.
Radical Hospitality
We value sacred rituals as ways of honoring and celebrating cultural expressions.
Sacred Rituals
We are rooted in an understanding that tending to the soul buoys and strengthens individual and communal renewal.
Spiritual Enrichment
Transformative Education
We build on our legacy of teaching and learning to empower people to be progressive catalysts in their communities.
Scarritt Bennett Center is a nonprofit conference, retreat, and education center in Nashville, TN. Our mission is to create space where individuals and groups engage each other to achieve a more just world.
Owned by United Women in Faith, our campus is formerly home to United Methodist-related Scarritt College for Christian Workers (1924–1980) and Scarritt Graduate College (1981–1988). Today, Scarritt Bennett Center works to continue the powerful legacy of the Scarritt students, faculty, and staff in the fight for women’s empowerment, racial justice, and dignity for all.
