Welcome to the Black Diamonds Women's Conference

The Black Diamonds Women’s Conference provides African American women and girls with access to resources and information regarding educational success, emotional well-being and financial stability.

A core focus of the Black Diamonds initiative is to expand readiness, access and participation among women of color in careers that offer sustainable pay, security, personal satisfaction and upward economic mobility.

Black Diamonds is a collaborative effort between educational institutions, community organizations, corporate partners and individuals to promote continuous development among African American women and girls in Northeast Ohio.

This two-day conference is the kickoff to a yearlong series of workshops focused on mental and physical well-being, occupational and educational access, and financial literacy.
