Jewel Plummer Cobb Sisters Conference - Still I Rise: The State of Black Women and Girls
Save the date and join us as we explore the underlying issues that continue to impact the security of Black women and girls, technology, and employment. Through powerful panel discussions and expert insights, weâll consider what we need to prepare for the future. Together we will move beyond conversation to share valuable resources and develop a collective CALL TO ACTION. The AADC Black Alumnae Network invites all Douglass alumnae, friends, the entire Rutgers community and beyond to come together to this important, practical, and interactive conference. Details and registration will be available soon.
For conference sponsorship opportunities, please contact AADC Executive Director Eileen Cotter at ecotter@douglassalumnae.org.
âOur most important task is the guidance and inspiration we can give to young people through the process of education.â
— Dr. Jewel Plummer Cobb, Scientist, Educator, Mentor and the first African American Dean of Douglass
