Youth Voices for Global Change: Celebrating 80 Years of the United Nations

WomenNC is also proud to honor the late Juanita Bryant, who was a trailblazer for women's rights in our community, and beyond.

This evening will spotlight young changemakers from across North Carolina, elevate intergenerational conversations, and offer opportunities to invest in the next generation of gender equity leaders.Whether you're a longtime supporter, first-time guest, student, or community partner—this is your moment to gather, reflect, and act.
