The Intercultural Resource Center is a house on West 114th Street. It is operated by the Office of Multicultural Affairs.

The IRC accommodates OMA administrative offices and programming space, and "The Intercultural House", which is a special interest community. The SIC members plan and hold programs that promote the themes of freedom and justice, especially social justice.

The IRC is also one of the few places on campus designated by the OMA as a "safe space". That is, the OMA encourages people to affirm and support each other in their identities, and it discourages hurtful and dehumanizing words and actions.
