Enjoy some highlights from our 2012 HerWorld Event.

This day-long program is developed especially for high school junior and senior young women, designed to help prepare them for college, inspire them to reach their career aspirations and introduce them to careers in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM).

Students heard from successful women in the community and participated in team-building and educational exercises with other young women from across the state. This was an innovative and educational day.

This year our speakers represented organizations such as the Technology Association of Georgia: Women in Technology; the Georgia Department of Education; the Black Data Processing Association; Morehouse School of Medicine, Georgia Power, and more.
