The theme of my presidency is “Redefining Empowerment.” This year, with each program we will focus on providing the tools and guiding you in implementing the strategies that will enable you to level up. We stand ready to defy the limitations often ascribed to black women with that which will actually nourish and edify us to excel on our chosen paths.
What we offer is no replica of general notions about what black women need to thrive; we are our sisters and therefore we understand not only our needs, but our aspirations and our challenges. Our journey is a shared one, and we are convinced that through ABWA, we can offer genuine empowerment that leads us to prevail on every side.
Journey with us, as we lift as we rise, and together, we will experience empowerment redefined.
In Service and Commitment,
Jennifer L. Taiwo, Esq.
President, 2019-2020
Association of Black Women Attorneys (ABWA)
