The Chapter is involved
with a rich mix of activities focused on young women, needy
Families, women's health, political and economic awareness. The
Chapter's signature Programs include:
Positive Steps:
A Program that provides young women ages 12-17 the opportunity
to recognize their full potential through educational,
developmental, and cultural programs focusing in the areas of
health and wellness, careers and leadership, and cultural and
personal development. Our vision is to see young women step into
a positive future, one step at a time.
Momentum:
The mission of this program is to provide women making the
welfare-to-work transition with additional support to empower
themselves and develop their full potential through education,
mentoring and developmental programs. Our goal is to assist
these women in realizing their dreams000 and those of their
children. NCBW believes vision and reality converges only with
the "force" to achieve.
Madam C.J. Walker Scholars Program:
The goal of this program is to provide long-term educational,
developmental and career development and career advancement for
socially and economically challeged youth and adult women.
Participants in the madam C.J. Walker Scholars Program must be
