How are you supporting Girls of Color? Join us to share your knowledge and get involved in the All About Girls of Color Initiative!

As a community leader and major stakeholder invested in the well-being of Girls of Color – please accept this invitation to join us as we host our first Community Conversation with a group of individuals doing amazing work within their sector to move the needle towards positive outcomes for Girls of Color.
Our goal through facilitating a “community conversation” with key stakeholders who are passionate about the well-being of Girls Of Color – youth, parents, educators, nonprofit service providers, community partners, and employers – is to solicit your input on what is working well, what is not working, to identify unfulfilled needs, and to think creatively about new opportunities for programming, partnership and collaboration.
This event will be hosted by:
Tinesia Conwright, Founder & Executive Director, DETOUR/FANCY Teen Girls Expo & Leadership Academy (www.detourempowers.org)
