Our Mission Statement
The Safe Dormitories Association is an organization of Mississippi citizens who are deeply concerned that all our state universities allow men students to spend long unsupervised hours in the women's dormitory rooms --- bedrooms --- and vice versa for the men's dormitory rooms.
Our organization worked to introduce a bill, The Safe Dorms Act, in our legislature this year, 2025, to return all the dormitories on our state university campuses to separate gender dormitories with opposite-gender visitation only in designated public reception areas --- no opposite-gender visitation in dormitory rooms. To our great disappointment our bill died in Committee in both the Senate (SB 2218—Hill) and the House of Representatives (HB 1605—Hobgood-Wilkes).
We do, however, have an amendment to SB 2221, introduced by Senator Williams, which we are hopeful will help us in this urgent mission. Call your senators and representatives and urge them to vote for SB 2221 during this session of the legislature.
