The institution traces its roots from the resurgence of the women's movement in the 1980s. The Women's Crisis Center was formally established on 19 February 1989, making it a pioneer of the “radical concept of feminist counseling in the Philippines. Its office is located at the third floor of ER Trauma Extension Building of the East Avenue Medical Center in Diliman, Quezon City.
It has a Crisis Intervention Counseling Program (CICP) that provides emotional support and feminist counseling, referrals for health and medical needs, legal assistance, shelter, and other support services. WCC also partners with several other institutions in conducting several projects related to the prevention of violence against women.
