The mission of She’s Empowered is to uplift women - mind, body and spirit and to encourage them to live their dreams. Women who may have suffered tremendous odds due to disease, foreclosure, job losses, domestic violence and or other factors are encouraged to begin their journey to success. Statistic show that women suffer more from chronic disease, violence (abuse) and mental health disorders than men and so does their self-esteem. The Women’s Empowerment Conference goal is to provide women with inspiration. May is Women’s Health and Lupus Awareness month. The butterfly symbolizes the rash that appears on the face of a lupus patient. The butterfly also signifies freedom, growth and transformation. Some proceeds from this event will go to the Latreese Nicole Fagan Memorial Scholarship Fund a non-profit organization that provides young adults with lupus scholarships to attend an accredited school.



The Mistress of Ceremony is Ramona Prater Radio Personality and News Director of the Steve Harvey Morning Show with Mix 92.3 and Coco with WJLB will provide thirty minutes of comedy.
