2025 Conference Highlights
Our 2025 conference theme was Seasons of Life: Resilience, Empowerment, and Transformation.
This theme recognized that women's journeys, like nature's tapestry, encompass distinct phases of growth, challenge, and renewal.
We explored how embracing life's different seasons allows us to draw strength from our experience while lifting up and empowering each other through times of transition.
