Featured Programs
We wholeheartedly believe that Black women need (and deserve) spaces intentionally designed for us. The complexity of our identities and the unique issues that we face require culturally-competent and community-led solutions. The historical use of a one-size-fits-all approach to change and liberation has most often left Black women overlooked and disconnected. Instead, we see our cultural and spiritual practices as tools for community-building and mobilizing rather than things to minimize in cross-racial encounters.
