The mission of the Harriet E. Richards Cooperative House is to provide alternative, off-campus housing to undergraduate women, cisgender and transgender women alike, dependent on financial-aid at Boston University.

The Harriet E. Richards Cooperative House at Boston University - also known as the HER House - is a beautiful historic brownstone located at 191 Bay State Road. 

The HER House is more than an affordable place to live during undergraduate years; it is a place where twenty-four women of different backgrounds and cultures can come together and become part of a close-knit cooperative community.
