Join the Emily Taylor Center for Women & Gender Equity, and  G.E.M.S. (Gifted Empowered Motivated Sisters), for Sistah Circle, a monthly space dedicated to centering the health and wellness of Black women and femmes.

Sistah Circle sessions will hold space for intentional wellness practices and strategies to enhance the health and wellness of Black women and femmes. In the words of Black feminist bell hooks, “choosing wellness is an act of political resistance.”
