ATLANTA, September 18, 2017/NNPANewswirePRThe National African-American Women’s Movement LLC (NAAWM) will host a solutions-focused interactive conference called “The National African-American Women’s Conversation” on Saturday, October 7, 2017 at the Atlanta Airport Marriott Hotel (4711 Best Road, Atlanta, GA 30337). It fills the gap in social advocacy, which traditionally excludes Black women. Your input is required to provide knowledge, insight, accountability, and also coaching. The National Conversation is designed for Black Women to unite in peace, equality, and sisterhood.

Their mission is to empower African-American women through education and positive imagery that will strengthen one’s self and family. Moreover, their vision is to improve the economic and social conditions within urban communities for all generations. Their method is through a series of innovative events; Their aim is to facilitate a movement focused on solutions geared towards the many issues faced by the African-American experience.
