Ladies on the Rock

Our “Ladies on the Rock” is an initiative focusing on empowering Black communities through empowering ladies and girls. This online and in person workshop and seminar are led and conducted by Black Ladies for the motivation, empowerment and support of Black ladies, through multiple programs. The last event on November 18, 2023, with over 50 participants was a combination of presentations on self-care, stress management that became an interesting empowerment talk show as participant confidently and freely sharing their personal experiences, and stress related challenges.

The mission includes to form a support system for Black ladies through discussion forum for sharing personal experiences, economic improvement options, issues affecting Black ladies at home, at work, in the society and proffer solutions through the impute of the experts and presenters. It is not only a workshop/seminar, but also a fun event, an empowerment talk show where older ladies share experiences with younger ladies and vice versa.

The Ladies on the Rock initiative is led by individuals who identify as Black, ensuring that decision-making, strategic planning, and overall governance reflect the perspectives and experiences of the Black community. The services are designed and delivered by Black for the benefit of Black to individuals within the Black community. The programs promote inclusivity and cultural competency, and tackles issues that disproportionately affect Black individuals, such as systemic racism, economic disparities, race discrimination, and inequality, health and well-being thereby create positive outcomes and empowerment for the Black community and a sense of inclusivity.

The initiative is a social, networking and training events for Black ladies of all ages. It is the gathering of professional and non-professional ladies to support and motivate one another through sharing experiences, advice, guidance and information provision. The program covers topics like stress management, self-care, mental health, family challenges, career paths, and return to work opportunities including skill training and skill development for employment opportunities.
The last event held on November 18, 2023, titled “Changes and Seasons” was attended by over 50 Black ladies. 48 feedback questionnaires were completed and returned with 95% high rating and confirming willingness to attend the next event.
