Research, Education, and Advocacy to Achieve Sexuality and Gender Equity and Justice

Who Are We...

The Silberman Center for Sexuality and Gender (SCSG) is the first scholarly center in the United States focusing on sexuality and gender housed within a school of social work. It is based at the Silberman School of Social Work at Hunter College, (CUNY) – New York’s oldest and largest public school of social work. Building upon a core institutional mission of academic excellence in the public interest, SCSG engages and develops research, educational, and community-based projects and programs to inform socially just understandings of sexuality and gender. The Center is a vital hub for the creation of sex-positive, gender-inclusive social work practice and research environments and a more inclusive, informed society from the individual to the public policy levels.
