WHY DO WE NEED WOMEN'S HEALTH WEEK?
Women's Health Week was born out of our frustration with observing campuses like Harvard University host "Sex Week" events promoting sexual concepts, behaviors, and products that are both dangerous and harmful to students and their ability to have healthy and fulfilling relationships. We believe students deserve better. Women's Health Week is our response.
In this 5-day event, you will discover:
-
The definition of feminism we need to embrace today.
-
Why the female body does not need to supressed, altered or destroyed to be fulfilled or successful.
-
How to advocate for healthcare that is in line with a woman's natural body.
-
Why great sex matters and the right conditions for it to happen.
-
The irreversible impact of porn on our relationship with ourselves and others.
-
Why our culture thinks that fertility is limiting...and what to do about it.
-
The truth about fertility and motherhood—and why it doesn't have to hold us back from success like society believes.
-
How your cycle reveals the truth about your female body and your hormonal health.
If you believe that women are created good and their bodies should be respected and protected, this FREE LIVE IN-PERSON EVENT is for you.
We need your voice to get the women’s movement back on track and in line with the intended design of our bodies.
This FREE event is for you:
-
If you're a college-aged man or woman who believes in the complementary nature of the sexes and wants to celebrate our differences
-
If you want to challenge society's view of womanhood and desire change
-
If you want to be able to express that your perspective on women's identity and health is respectable and not just based on a religious worldview
-
If you want to see a revolution in society that empowers women
-
If you believe in a new kind of feminism that empowers and celebrates women without trying to alter, suppress or change their bodies

This event has been generously sponsored by Dr. Derek Doroski.
Women's bodies were meant for more than sexual pleasure only. They are life-giving vessels! No one should have the right to alter, suppress, and destroy women's fertile, life-giving female bodies in the name of health. That is in no way an empowering "women's right".

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Women’s Health Week (WHW)?
WHW is a week-long event designed specifically for college women to learn how to advocate for their own health as well as educate both men and women on the beauty of the female body. WHW strives to negate the false narratives surrounding women's bodies and replace them with the truth by introducing a Wholistic Feminism worldview, a new wave of feminism that supports and values the whole woman in body, mind, and spirit.
Why does Women’s Health Week Matter?
WHW inspires women to embrace their natural biological functions and recognize the inherent goodness within. The female fertility cycle plays a significant role in overall women’s health and well-being, yet this vital truth is often overlooked or even unknown to many. This lack of knowledge can lead women to make health care choices that are not in harmony with their natural cyclical bodies.
Who is Women's Health Week for?
WHW is for college students who are curious about what it looks like to protect women's fertility and identity as mothers. This unique 5-day experience is designed to build on each other for an educational, and uplifting community experience.
Can men attend Women’s Health Week?
Yes! WHW encourages men to rise up and step into their natural, masculine roles by discovering and understanding a woman's body along with her natural feminine gifts and abilities. This deeper understanding equips men to protect and defend these precious gifts, for they are the very essence of our existence. WHW provides a valuable opportunity for male and female students to learn alongside each other, the faculty, and those in the surrounding campus community.
Where and when is Women's Health Week?
WHW at Franciscan University of Steubenville will be hosted from February 12 - 16, 2024 at 7pm nightly. Talks will be hosted on campus as listed above. Get Directions to Franciscan University.
I cannot attend live all 5 nights—will there be recordings?
