The topic of this National Conversation will cover “Our Bodies, Our Health: State of Minority Women’s Mental and Sexual Wellness,” to take place on September 30, 2022, from 12:00 pm to 2:00 pm EST – 9:00 am to 11:00 am PST on Zoom and live-streamed on Facebook. The event is open to all entrepreneurs regardless of gender, race, or ethnicity.

The topics to be covered include:
PANEL 1: STATE OF MENTAL WELLNESS FOR MINORITY WOMEN
The pandemic has left -and continues to cause- a significant burden of anxiety, uncertainty, loss, and stress, especially for minority women and their families. How are Latinas and other minority women dealing with mental health wellness and recovery in the workplace or sustaining their businesses?
PANEL 2. STATE OF SEXUAL WELLNESS FOR MINORITY WOMEN
The US Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Wade vs. Roe could have lasting, severe, and disproportionate effects on some of the most vulnerable groups in the U.S., namely Black and Latino communities. What is the impact of this decision on these populations, and how can they seek help from different organizations?
Join us and all supporting organizations that cooperate to provide access to minority women in finding resources, information, and tools for their important health and wellness needs.
