OUR STORY
A social change movement dedicated to empowerment in NYC!
In 2015, the founder, Anika Joseph, had the vision to create an organization offering free empowerment events and workshops to combat some of the issues women face. Today, Women's Empire Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that curates events for women of color in underserved communities. As a social change movement, we are committed to providing women with working tools and resources to pursue their goals without bias or barriers while also addressing inequality, and strengthening families and communities.
