There are community centers in nearly every city that are used to some extent. Some are good and some are bad. In most cases, the existence of a community is a prerequisite for the construction of a community center. This proposal wishes to break that norm and use the existence of a community center to create a community. Among minority demographics (in this case, the demographics of women and children), there are many injustices- from domestic to social to medical. This thesis proposes the creation of a community center that will foster relationships among a group of women in Papillion, Nebraska, in order to empower them and offer easy access to resources. The research will highlight the key architectural elements that contribute to creating a sense of comfort within a space, the resources which are most helpful to women, and the existing projects that already solved some of these key issues.
