Women and Girl's Conference in D.C.

Today is March 10. It is National Women HIV/AIDS Day. Washington's Xi Omega chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated hosted a Women and Girl's Conference at the Catholic University of America. It has been a good conference so far. Shawn Yancy was the guest speaker. There are seminars on teen dating violence, HOME, finance, effective communications, estate planning, bullying, and personal branding.

I was honored to escort my sister in law Kai Bear to this conference. She never heard of Alpha Kappa Alpha, which is kinda cool. So, I got to tell her a brief overview of the women's organization.

It is a sea of pink and green. But, I was excited to see a HU alum in the building from the School of Communications. It was detailed, on time, and organized. PLUS! Best part of the conference is the cute pink bags given to the participants.
